KEY LEARNING IN STONE AGE TO IRON AGE IN A DAY:
- What happened in the Ice Age and how the great thaw affected Britain.
- The importance of stone, bronze and iron and the numerous uses for each across each age.
- The way Stone Age people lived – nomadic, hunters, gatherers
- Stone circles – what were they for? And how do we know?
- The development of homes and communities in the Bronze Age
- The development in the Iron Age of pottery, jewellery and iron tools.
- Historical artefacts – what they are / where they come from / what they show us.
All workshops are designed and delivered in a completely inclusive way so that all children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities can access our work.
Altru Drama is a creative education company, established in 2005. We use drama as a tool to increase topic understanding, build confidence, explore issues and develop personal and social skills.
We aim to inspire, create and educate - working with and for young people to help them learn, develop and grow. And we absolutely love what we do!
Our aim is to make the curriculum fun, engaging and exciting for children - and to develop a love of learning through creative play.
Our history topics help children step into the period of history, playing the characters, living their lives and developing their understanding through practical and immersive activities.
Our history workshops are available in two formats: Learn and Present Days and Explore Days.
A Learn and Present Day gives a single class the opportunity to create an information lead performance all about their topic in just one day!! (Please take a look at our short Learn and Present video which demonstrates this process)
An Explore Day gives up to 4 classes the chance to participate in an exciting, action-packed drama workshop full of creativity, fun and topic facts!
