This lesson is designed as an KS3 introductory module called ‘Invaders and Settlers AD43 - 1066’. It provides an overview of the Viking invasions and their impact on Anglo Saxon England. There is also a focus on the decline and rise again of towns and education, which is a theme which is returned to in other KS3 modules on medieval towns and industrialisation 1750 - 1900. The tasks and activities included in this module are suitable for the full range of ability at KS3 and are designed as a bridge or transition from KS2.
