In Overhistory we already talked to you yesterday about what are history school projects according to the courses and in which we made a small outline of the jobs that you can be commissioned depending on the course you are going to. If you are in 1st year of ESO, surely they have asked you to do an article on Prehistory.
We are going to talk about these concepts to help you do your work on prehistory:
- Concept about what is prehistory
- Ideas for your work on Prehistory
- Explanatory video about Prehistory.
What is Prehistory?
- Prehistory corresponds to the period of time that is considered prior to history, so if you have to do a job about it, you must include various points in which you talk about its origin, its development and when it ended. That is why we will now see some ideas for your work on this topic.
Ideas for the work of Prehistory for 1st ESO:
- Summary: The best option is to make a summary and for this you can opt for a scheme to present drawings representing the different stages of prehistory or even make a scheme with photos that you can get from the internet.
- stages of prehistory: On the other hand, you must explain the different stages that occurred in this period, and in this way you have to make special reference, of course, to the Paleolithic, Mesolithic, Neolithic, and the Metal Age (we must also summarize that within this stage we find what is known as the Copper, Bronze and Iron Ages)
- rock art: You should pay special attention to the subject of rock art and how it develops in each of the stages mentioned. You can also try to explain what are hunting tools and in fact instruments that were used in daily life in Prehistory.
Other ideas for your 1st ESO project on Prehistory:
- Apart from making an outline talking about everything related to prehistory, you can also provide different visual samples in your work.
- This way you can try make some weapons or instruments that were used at this time, and thus explain better to the class.
- On the other hand, whatever photos and positive days They will also be a good example so that your classmates and teacher can better understand what you want to explain about prehistory.
- You can also focus your work on the caves of Altamiraand where one of the most important pictorial and artistic cycles of Prehistory is preserved.

I also leave you a PDF in which you will find an explanation as a summary to help you in your work: Laprehistoria
