A cast-iron argument

A brilliant activity to help children get to grips with the transition from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age. Children plan an advertisement promoting the use of iron over bronze to Celtic villagers. They consider the advantages of iron swords and armour over bronze, and explain why iron is easier to use, coming up with a catchy slogan.

A perfect cross-curricular task for a KS2 topic on changes in Britain from the Stone Age to the Iron Age.
