Vikings Detective KS2

Vikings Detective KS2 is a five-mission KS2 history activity book mapped to the DfE National Curriculum unit on the Viking and Anglo-Saxon struggle for the Kingdom of England. Children discover that the Vikings came from Scandinavia and sailed in longships, investigate the first great raid on the monastery at Lindisfarne in AD 793, learn how raiders became settlers in the Danelaw with their capital at Jorvik (York), meet the Norse gods Odin, Thor and Freya, and find out how King Alfred the Great of Wessex defended England and made peace — all through the evidence of sagas, archaeology and artefacts. Knowledge questions are auto-marked on screen, and the whole book can be printed with a full answer key. Includes teacher, parent and pupil notes and is fully SEND-friendly with high-contrast and large-text modes.
