Activity Overview

Travel from being Neolithic Hunter Gatherers to Bronze Age Potters and Iron Age Farmers in this dynamic journey through a million years of Prehistory. The day starts with a demonstration of the evolution from Stone to Iron Age showing real metal ores.

• Stone Age Flint tools talk and Soap Knapping Arrow Heads
• Make Your Own Bronze Age Beaker Pot
• Grind Grain on Iron Age Quern Stones and make Dough
• Trade and Barter

Trading has two parts:

• Part 1: your class will swap real artefacts as they role play as characters and use numerical problem solving in the trading game
• Part 2: your pupils will enjoy trading by swapping their pocket money for Celtic gold coins to trade for the more precious produce in the shop
