Copper is a soft metal, but when it is melted and added to tin the result (bronze) is a much harder and durable material than copper or stone. It was used for tools, weapons and armour as well as building materials like decorative tiles. The Bronze Age started at different times in different countries. As people travelled to other countries, the knowledge of how to mix the copper and tin to make bronze was brought with them. Not all parts of the world had copper and tin available. Bronze was already being used in other parts of the world before it was brought to Britain around 2100 BC.

Friday : English – writing Do you remember the Stone Age Boy? Well, he has now fallen down a deep, dark hole and woken up in… the Bronze Age! He walked and walked through luscious, green fields until he met someone. She didn’t look like anyone he’d seen before, she was wearing a long woollen skirt. Her name was Prim. For today’s writing activity can you write a short paragraph which includes speech between the Bronze Age boy and Prim. Use the WAGOLL and information learnt this week to help you, and remember… Don’t use said!

Friday : English – writing Here is my WAGOLL, I made sure I didn’t include said and instead used much more interesting words. The Bronze Age boy slowly walked up to the girl, curious to find out where she had come from and where exactly he was. “Hello, my name is Prim, ” announced Prim. “Hey, where am I? ” asked the Bronze Age boy, as he turned his head to look around. “You’re in the Bronze Age, we use Bronze instead of Stone, ” cheered Prim, pulling out her copper axe to show off to him. “What is it made from? ” asked the Bronze Age boy, looking puzzled. “It is made from copper and tin, it is much more durable and hard compared to Stone, ” explained Prim. “Do you have electricity? ” enquired the Bronze Age boy, crossing his fingers. “Electri-what? ” stuttered Prim, scratching her head. “No, I’m afraid I’ve never heard of that, ” she added. “Well, you will have to show me around so I know what you do for fun around here, ” ordered the Bronze Age boy, as they walked towards the campsite.

Friday : English – writing Look back at your 6 interesting facts from this week’s project and the WAGOLL, use them to help you write your conversation between Prim and the Bronze Age boy. Here is your first few sentences to help you get underway, The Bronze Age boy __________ up to the girl, wondering … “_______, ” _____ Prim. What would they say? New speaker – new line Can you include a show not tell sentence in your writing? Instead of saying: “What is that used for? ” questioned the Bronze Age boy, looking confused. You could write: “What is that used for? ” questioned the Bronze Age boy, scratching his head. This shows the reader the emotion rather than telling them. 22
