Welcome to Dahl's Class
Flag Fen Peterborough
The children began their day creating a human timeline of prehistory. We then became hunters and used our spears to hunt a deer so we could learn what Bronze Age people used the different parts of the deer for. Afterwards we listened to a story in a replica Bronze Age Roundhouse with a lit fire. After lunch, we examined different replicas and real artefacts from prehistory and then arranged them in chronological order on a timeline. Finally, we created our own Bronze Age pottery using techniques from the past to create our pretty patterns. The children represented our school amazingly and staff at Flag Fen were very impressed with how knowledgeable they were answering questions.
