Year 3- Stone Age afternoon!

This experience formed part of our Literacy focus on The Stone Age Boy and our History learning, where we explored how people in the Stone Age made tools and houses, and how this period continues to influence Britain today, particularly through early farming techniques. The children thoroughly enjoyed our Stone Age afternoon, immersing themselves in life from thousands of years ago. They created their own cave drawings, completed a quiz all about the Stone Age, and even attempted to carve their names into pieces of wood. This helped them appreciate just how challenging carving would have been using stone tools. To extend this learning, the children then had the opportunity to make and paint their own tools using homemade playdough, cardboard, and straws. It was a fun, hands-on afternoon that truly brought their learning to life.
