Tuesday - Hunting and Gathering

Date: 16th Jan 2019 @ 7:03am

We spent sometime outside searching the grounds for plants to eat.  We had to be careful as some were poisonous. There were also some large animals about.  We found some very large ones and practised our spear throwing.

Inside we became historians and scientists. How do we know what the Stone Age people ate? We could explore their poo! We put on plastic gloves and searched for evidence of what they might have eaten.  We found remains of plant leaves, fish bones, seeds and berries.  There were some great faces as they did this. 

We carried on with trying to light a fire with flint and steel.  It is very difficult. 

In the afternoon we researched and started to make posters of the different prehistoric animals.
