Additionally, it helped increase subject-specific knowledge about different Viking topics such as Viking way of life, Gods and the Valkyries.

A fun and engaging lesson for upper KS2 but easily adaptable for lower KS2. Fast paced for accelerated progress.

Perfect for Ofsted, an observation, an interview or in addition to your weekly teaching. *Find all supporting worksheets and main teaching PowerPoint in our PREMIUM resources.
