We know about prehistoric life from artefacts that have been found, such as food, coins, tools and jewellery. What might historians of the future find out about you from your everyday belongings? Pick at least 5 things and what they might think it is for.
Make a one page photo album of prehistoric monuments. You can search for the best images online and stick them into your book.
