An exciting start to the new year!


This afternoon the children were put in to their 'tribes'. As a tribe they had to piece together a picture of a stone age artifact and think about what it was made out of, how it was made and what its use was.

We then looked at timetable of events that have happened from the year that they were born back to the Stone Age. An example of a timeline can be seen in the knowledge organisers for this half term on page 12.


The tribes then split up, half of the tribe prepared the 'cave' (paper around the tables) in the classroom, whilst the other half collected natural objects to 'paint' with. The tribes then made their own cave paintings. We spoke about how the paintings used to be about the animals that the tribes hunted. 


We have displayed these brilliant pieces of art work on our walls for you to look at over the next few weeks.
