An educational activity at the archaeological site of Plans de Santa Caterina, where students will discover the history of this place from Roman times to the Early Modern Age.
Through age-appropriate participatory activities, we will reconstruct the different phases of the site’s history. Students will learn about the various functions the site had over the centuries, the materials used, and what everyday life was like during each historical period.
Through games and exploration, students will uncover what this place was like thousands of years ago. Who lived here? Did they have houses like ours? Who worked here? How did they dress? We will reconstruct the different stages of the site using engaging illustrations.
This activity is designed to bring the site closer to students and awaken their interest in history in an active and playful way.
