How it maps to the curriculum
- 3-4
- SESE History
Strand: Early People /Ancient Societies
Strand unit: Vikings
Content objective: This resource should enable a child to:
- become familiar with aspects of the lives of these peoples
- examine and become familiar with evidence we have which tells us about these people, especially evidence of these people which may be found locally
- record the place of these peoples on appropriate timelines
Suggestions for use: Use as a learning centre or station during a unit on the Vikings. The interactive games and quizzes would be a great way to help students review in addition to expanding upon that knowledge base. The activity sections within each area are really great and will provide lots of ideas for class.
