This is the fifth lesson of the Migration to Britain scheme of work and focuses on the Vikings and how they transitioned from being violent raiders to peaceful settlers. Specifically, it focuses on why the Vikings came to Britain, their impact and should the Vikings be considered violent invaders or peaceful settlers.

This resource is the entire lesson on a power point and includes:

  • A joke and riddle to help settle the students while they write the title and date\
  • Clear smart differentiated learning objectives
  • Starter- students discuss what they already know about the Vikings using the guiding questions. If they dont know anything then they write a question they would like to ask
  • Activity 1- students study the reasons why the Vikings came to Britain and complete a ‘push’/‘pull’ factor table analysis to show whether the Vikings pulled or pushed to Britain
  • Activity 2- in pairs, students study a source and analyse the impact the vikings had on life in Britain.
  • Activity 3- students read through the evidence and colour code it to decide whether it suggests the Vikings were murderous invaders or peaceful settlers.
  • Plenary- students are split into teams of 3 or 4 and asked 5 questions. The team with the most correct answers wins.
  • Homework- students have a choice of tasks based on learning style.
