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.
