While it doesn�t sound very interesting, it is. This book shows how cavemen used string (made from various things) and throughout history how string has evolved along with man. I never knew there were so many uses for string! Activities: #1 The book talks about historic uses for string. Why not let students try to figure out new uses for string? They could write journal entries after listening or reading this book. Give them pieces of string for inspiration. #2 Make a game of dividing the class into groups and seeing which group can remember the most uses of string written about in the book. I bet it would be fun!
