Year 4 enjoyed a very busy, fun filled Viking Day on Friday. The children learnt lots of facts about Vikings, their transport, raids, battles, settlements, jobs, entertainment and living conditions.
The children have been …
- handling weapons, tools, armour and other resources from the Viking period
- trained in Viking battle drills
- identifying the uses of various Viking artefacts
- exploring the lives of Viking children
- playing Viking games
- looking inside of a Viking longhouse
- learning about Viking beliefs and legends, crafts and skills, and the roles of men and women of the era
