THINGS TO DO
Tell something that you have learned from watching an animal.
Mention as many things as you can that you think the Cave-men learned from animals.
Straighten and bend your elbow or knee so as to find where the strong muscles are.
Tell why the Cave-men tried to cut the strong muscles of the bison’s knee. We say when we cut these large muscles that we have “hamstrung” the animal.
Look at the picture of a Cave-man’s carving of an animal which has been “hamstrung.” Can you tell what animal it is?
Think of the two wolves coming up toward the bison. Model one of them in clay. See if the children can guess which one it is.
