To understand the evolution of prehistoric art.

(on the powerpoint with photos for room they are ordered for paleo - Neo time periods. • Children to discuss how the art changed over this time and the types of animals/ patterns used Then they will create their own versions of early prehistoric art. Give children little square pieces of paper and charcoal to recreate cave paintings/ rock art.

The children activity is to recreate what they think the red lady of Paviland would have looked like from the evidence, there are two variations of the sheet, the one with the picture is designed for pre-key stage children. The other is for everyone, using adaptive teaching a the pedagogical approach, children can use the knowledge they have attained from the lesson to support them as well as the information sheets that can be given to each table as a reminder.
