The Talk
This Virtual School Visit will include a short talk in which your class will discover the often mysterious times of ancient prehistory.
Explore the timeline of prehistory, starting in the cold landscapes of the Palaeolithic and moving through the Mesolithic, Neolithic, Bronze Age and finishing with the final days of the Iron Age before the arrival of the Romans. On their journey they will have the opportunity to see a wide range of real prehistoric artefacts and discover how these objects can often provide rich details of life in these vastly different times.
Then it is their turn to take charge...
Students will have the opportunity to participate in a dynamic discussion on the five key phases of prehistory led by the visiting archaeologist. Classes can pose their archaeological questions and discuss the answers, tailoring their prehistoric discoveries to their individual interests.
