Autumn Term Theme – Raiders and Traders

Who were the Anglo-Saxons? Who were the Vikings? Why were they so significant in history? 

 We will be exploring both the Anglo-Saxons and Vikings in detail, looking at: how they invaded, where they settled, how they lived and what impact they had on our lives today.

Across the different subjects, we will investigate the following questions:

Why did the Anglo-Saxons and Vikings invade Britain?

How do we classify animals? 

What makes an effective travel blog? 

What are the features of Blues music? 

How do you layer when printing in Art?
