Hello Year 6!
We cannot wait to see you on the 3rd of September and hope your summer has been brilliant so far. Below is more information on what we will be learning about when you come back to school:
The Stone Age and Iron Age
This next term we will all be learning about the Stone Age and Iron Age! The Stone Age and Iron Age are two important periods in history. The Stone Age is a period of prehistory that lasted from around 2.5 million years ago to about 3000 BCE. During this time, early humans used simple tools made of stone, such as axes and spears, to hunt and gather food. The Iron Age followed the Stone Age and lasted from around 1200 BCE to the arrival of the Romans in 43 CE. During this time, humans learned how to extract and work with iron, leading to the production of stronger and more durable tools and weapons.
