This outstanding lesson was written to help students studying the Norman Conquest. It focuses on the Battle of Stamford Bridge in 1066, which brought to an end the Viking invasions of Britain. The resources have been designed to work alongside any main stream text book on this topic, but I have also included a worksheet from my Norman Conquest booklet to help accompany the lesson. The tasks and activities included in this lesson are suitable for the full range in Year 7 and have been improved an refined based upon best practice.
