Animated visit of the museum - Cycle 2 CE

Accompanied by an animator, the children will listen to the story told by the exhibited objects and become privileged witnesses of the daily life of these first mountain dwellers, 5 500 years ago.

Description

It is more an animation based on a game of questions and answers than a visit. The child becomes the actor of his discovery and with Jean Ducaillou, the fictional archaeologist of the Museum, he will acquire the first rudiments of the scientific approach: to observe, to describe in order to put forward a hypothesis. But the imagination remains present because the manipulation of real ceramic shards will allow him to imagine the prehistoric potter making his vase.

Pedagogical objectives: Observe, understand, imagine, experiment
- Observe: objects of daily life that have survived through time
- To understand: To make the link between the object and its function, the evolution of techniques. The rudiments of the scientific process
- To imagine : The way of life of the inhabitants of the Balmes cave
- To experiment : To handle the object, the fragile artifact
