Amazing Anglo-Saxons

Date: 5th Dec 2021 @ 10:19am

Year 5 have really enjoyed learning about the Anglo-Saxons. 

To start our unit, we recapped on our chronological knowledge of History. Once we all knew where the Anglo-Saxons came in history, we then talked about the reasons why the Anglo-Saxons invaded.

We have also investigated the different areas of Anglo-Saxon life: kingdoms, laws and punishment, the social hierarchy and the names and places the Anglo-Saxons created that are still around today! 

The children were fascinated to learn new words such as churl, weregild and Mercia.
