'Who were the English?' - Student Booklet

'Who were the English?'

This bundle features all the lessons and resources needed to teach the enquiry: ‘Who were the English (before 1066)’? The enquiry focuses on the skill historical evidence. Overall, students will refer to five pieces of evidence (Roman skeletons discovered at Aballava fort, Sutton Hoo helmet, Bede’s account of Hadrian and Theodore, the Viking Domesday Stone, and a coin from the reign of King Æthelstan) in order to answer the enquiry question. The resources on the PowerPoints are hopefully self-explanatory in terms of how to deliver it to students. But there are brief instructions in the descriptions for each lesson.

Anglo-Saxon Kingdoms and Sutton Hoo (2 lessons). The Spread of Christianity in England. Viking Raid on Lindisfarne. Æthelstan, King of the English Review lesson: Who were the English (before 1066)?
