Spring 2
To begin our topic we looked at why the Anglo-Saxons first came to Britain. Did you know they were invited by the Romans to help them fight the Picts and the Scots? We did some drama outside to understand the different groups living in the UK at the time.
D&T - Anglo-Saxon Jewellery
English - For our learning hook into our Beowulf unit we told stories 'around the fire' just like the Anglo-Saxons used to.
Some of our wonderful Home Learning Projects
Sketching Anglo-Saxon symbols and patterns.
History - We became archeologists, scientists, doctors and site supervisors for the afternoon, to try to uncover who the burial at Sutton Hoo belonged to.
Science - Forces and magnets. We experimented to find out which magnet was the strongest
