This half term we will be learning about prehistoric history. In order to do this, we needed to gain an understanding of chronology and how history was mesured before the year 0 AD. We enjoyed building timelines to help us understand just how long ago the Stone Age began.
Today, we discussed what things we consider survival essentials and how our basic needs have not changed since the Stone Age. We discussed how as time has changed, our ways of meeting our survival needs has developed but that the survival needs themselves remain the same. We imagined we had woken up in the Stone Age, naked, hungry, tired, defenceless and thirsty and debated what actions we would take first in order to ensure our own survival.
