A set of two activities to help develop knowledge of Britain before the Roman conquest.
There is a power point with a map showing 14 selected Iron Age sites in England and Wales.: Bigbury Camp, Bredon Hill, Castell Henylls, Castle How, Chyauster, Cissbury, Glastonbury, Maiden Castle, Mam Tor, Pen-y-gaer, Stanwick, The Wrekin, Uffington, Wandlebury (selected in part to give a wide geographical spread on the map). As this is just a selection of the multitude of sites it allows for an extra activity/challenge of students deciding where else should be included/where could be left out?

There are also slides to print out with the names missing for students to complete -as support there is one with the first letter provided (the list is also contained in the word document).
There is also a word document with a word search covering the same sites.
Together the set provides a range of ways of developing knowledge of Pre-Roman Britain and the activities are suitable for homework or for ‘school at home’.

Stone Age to Iron Age: Pre-Roman Britain

A set of resources to develop and reinforce knowledge and understanding of Ancient British (English) history -from before the Roman Conquest, especially in terms of chronological knowledge and understanding. There is a range of distinct resources covering events, places, life etc. They are all suitable for use in class -both as a main activity and as an extension task- and many are suited to homework / independent study – as well as resources for ‘school at home.’ There is a power point presentation of a range of 25 events - from 6,000 BCE when Britain became separated from Europe with the submerging of Doggerland to the Roman Invasion in 43 CE. (Each slide has picture & one sentence summary) One version of the above plays automatically to give a sense of the passing of time each event slide is on show for five seconds and the whole presentation lasts for approximately five minutes. Two related activities develop this study of events with tasks using a selection of the same developments/events - The first is a set of printable ‘cards’ which can be used for sorting or matching tasks (such as the matching pairs game) – each event is on a separate ‘card’ from its date, organised in sets of 10 -there are two sets, but each can be used separately or the two combined to increase the difficulty level. The second is a set of ‘domino cards’ to provide a more supported matching challenge; these feature the same events and each ‘card’ links to another forming a ‘domino’ like chain (which again can be used as a set of 10 or both combined for greater challenge). There is also a time-line based sequencing task featuring 24 events (taken from the power point)- A simple sequencing activity to help develop chronological knowledge. There is a list of events with dates -but events are listed alphabetically- and a blank table to enter the information into. So students need to sequence the dates first (there is a sheet/table to help them with doing this). There is also a support version in which the table to complete has the dates in order so that students just need to find the corresponding event There are six of the word search and a combined word search & quiz challenge. Each comes in a range of versions to provide differing degrees of challenge: each wordsearch has a grid and words (name/ places/terms) to find – the same names so that all students are covering the same answers whatever the level of support/challenge. The six topics are: People(s) & Places x2,Terms x2, Technology x2. In each set the first version is a ‘traditional’ one with the words provided. Then there are four versions with a quiz: this has the same words to find but they aren’t provided -first you need to use the clues (questions) to work out what word you are searching for. One just has the clues then there are three supported versions (each of the four has the same clues): the first has the first letter of the answer; the second has the number of numbers in the answer and the third has both the first letter and number of letters. There are two map-based activities -one relating to a range of Iron Age tribes and one to a range of Ancient sites. For each there is a slide showing a selection of tribes or sites and map sheets to complete (one blank, one with first letter provided for support). For the tribes there is a word document which lists the tribes with their approximate modern day areas and has three separate activities. The first is a set of printable ‘cards’ with the name of the tribe and its approximate modern day area for the tribes on the map – they can be used for matching pairs etc. Second is similar but set out as a set of dominoes to allow for greater variety. Thirdly is a set of two (traditional style) word searches covering most of the names of the featured tribes and the main modern day areas. For the sites there is a traditional style word search. Finally there is a set of 17 colouring pages (pdf) the images are taken from a range of public domain sources (mainly 19th century books). As they are mainly screenshots of old book pages this may be reflected in the quality of the outlines though many have been digitally enhanced to help provide an outline for colouring in. They have been selected to cover a range of topics from Britain (and Northern Europe) before the Roman Invasion of England: Includes jewellery and coins, weapons, tombs, abstract art etc.
