Peasant life in Medieval times

medieval peasant life

We have been learning about what it was like to be a peasant in medieval times! As part of that we had a go at weaving and wattle and daube, painting it with lime paint.

  • First we got the loom ready
  • We used the comb to push down each row of weaving
  • We made a bookmark
  • We made a frame and glued in our wattle sticks
  • We mixed our daube using dirt, clay and hay
  • We daubed the daube on the wattle
  • When it was dry we painted it with lime paint
