Vikings: Design a T-Shirt & Explanation Text
Children will look at different symbols significant to the Vikings and will design a tshirt including the symbols. They will then write an explanation text that describes the different symbols included, as well as the reasons for the design choices.
In the past, this unit has worked really well at the end of a Viking study, where the children can show off what they’ve learned.
This pack includes lesson plans, rubrics, and editable rubrics to support with the learning process. Lessons and objectives are aligned with objectives from the 2014 National Curriculum of England.

Vikings: Battle Modifications with littleBits
Children will look at the history of Viking warfare and weapons during their invasion of the UK. Children will then design their own defence or weapon modification with littleBits based on a Viking design.
In the past, I have introduced this lesson dressed as a Monk at Lindisfarne with the light off and candles lit. I play audio in the background of Monks singing before acting frightened at the arrival of Vikings coming ashore.
