Everyone has been really excited to start their new History unit on the Anglo-Saxons. Year 5 looked at who the Anglo-Saxons were and why they decided to settle in Britain. They used the school timeline to investigate this time period and reviewed maps to explore how far the Anglo-Saxons travelled from Germany, Denmark and the Netherlands to reach Britain.
Students engaged in a Drama activity based on our English unit. We re-enacted a scene from our focus text and explored the emotions, personalities and thoughts of each character. Students were able to work in small groups and as a whole class.
