In History today we learned about people who lived around 2000 BC. We compared how they lived with how Stonge Age hunters lived (we learned about them last week). Life progressed in several different ways between the two time periods. One way was that the people we studied today had learned how to make clay pots. So, we made our own "clay" pots:
Asher preferred to make balls and Karis preferred to make pancakes.
Our pots, pancakes, and balls ready to be put in the kiln:
Then we painted our creations:
Mommy ended up making the pots for Karis and Asher, but everyone did their own paint job.
Karis' pot:
Asher's pot:
and Malachi's original piece:
Just for your information: farming, herding animals, and bronze tool making were other marks of progression during this time period which lead to permanent housing and a less nomadic lifestyle.
