*Reading – Make sure that you are reading for at least 15 minutes per day.
*History – We are going to begin our new topic which is all about the Anglo-Saxons and Vikings. We are beginning with a focus on the Anglo-Saxons to begin with.
So, what do you know already? Perhaps you know of some famous characters/kings? Or are familiar with how they lived, where they came from and what evidence of them we have left behind. Today, I would like you to conduct some research including into the following areas:
Where did the Anglo-Saxons come from?
Why did they more to Britain?
What sorts of jobs did they do?
What language did they speak?
What did they believe in?
You can add other facts and pictures that interest you.
*TTRockstars – spend any spare minutes rocking on through those tables.
Complete your work in the exercise books sent home last term and/or upload photos of your work to each assignment if possible as introduced on yesterday’s Teams meetings. If not, please send photos of what you have done to me at hollis.c@ruyton.shropshire.sch.uk or admin@ruyton.shropshire.sch.uk.
Keep going – you are doing brilliantly,
Mrs Hollis x
