Autumn Term 2:

Autumn Term 1:

Prehistoric Art:
We explored art techniques using different natural materials, like prehistoric people would have used. We used spices, herbs, charcoal and natural objects to explore how to best make marks. We also created our own 'cave walls' to experiment making art on a rough surface.
Stone Age Trading:
We learnt all about the importance of trading in the Stone Age before the invention of money. We had to collect all the items on our 'Stone Age Shopping List' so that we could survive. We had lots of fun bartering and working out what the best trade was.
