UKS2-English-Battle of Hastings

This morning, all pupils in UKS2 had an English lesson based around the Battle of Hastings. The lesson allowed pupils to develop their understanding of both the Anglo-Saxon and Norman weaponry, leaders and tactics. Pupils used the school grounds to role-play the battle to help consolidate their understanding. As a final task, pupils were asked to generate quotes from the battle to help with the newspaper report they will be completing over the next few weeks.
