ERASMUS+ KA-229 'SUSTAINABLE CITIES': PREHISTORIC CAVE PAINTINGS IN EXTREMADURA

Our school is taking part in the Erasmus + KA229 Project 'Sustainable Cities' with partners from France, Italy, Greece and Poland.

One of the activities carried out by the students in 2nd year ESO is 'Prehistoric cave paintings', which has allowed them to investigate and value our heritage. First, they have analysed Prehistoric rock art: 

• Why did early humans paint? 
• What did they paint? 
• Which materials did they use? 
• Where are the main sites both in Extremadura and in Spain? 

Then, they have created some infographics and QR codes with all that information and, finally, they have made a mural imitating some of the most representative paintings, such as the bisons in Altamira Cave, in Northern Spain, Maltravieso Cave handprints, in Cáceres or the human figures in Levantine paintings, in Eastern Spain. It has been great team work and we are proud of the result, well done, class!
