This is a bumper collection of model-making, costume and recipe projects that can be done at home or in the classroom. They provide hours of creative fun and give amazing insights into history at the same time. The instructions and step-by-step photographs are easy to follow, the materials used are inexpensive and easy to find. All of the projects are inspired by authentic artefacts, buildings, clothes and food, and drawn from key cultures around the world. By doing them, readers should pick up information about the skills and styles of different civilizations. Some projects, such as all of the recipes, or the patchwork cushion, can be actually be put to practical use. Others can contribute to some interesting fancy dress, while some models are simply ornamental. Each project, however, has an important learning point about human history. The projects are arranged thematically to reflect different aspects of everyday life, such as fashion, transport, or entertainment. The introduction to each thematic section sets the scene for the projects that follow and background information describes the skills and crafts of the past. The book enhances National Curriculum history at Key Stage 2 teaching.
