A word bank with pictures and meanings. Split into two sections, one to describe the fire and one to describe the feelings of people affected. Some words have brackets to give a simple meaning. A great little resource to encourage the use of high level vocabulary all through this unit. We used it when writing a newspaper report and a diary entry from the time.

This is a fantastic lesson to get practical. The photos should be printed and laminated and then hidden in some manner. Preferably, hidden in sand to become a true archaeological dig, however they could also be hidden around the school or even just distributed throughout the classroom. Children will find an artifact, draw it, guess what it was used for and then use research or Google reverse image search to find what the item actually was. Makes a brilliant practical lesson with many possibilities. Note: All artifact images have been collated from a Google image search in order to make reverse image search accurate. Consequently, the copyright of these images remains with the individual or organisation.

A Notebook document with examples of Egyptian jewellery and the kind of materials they would use.

As a class we watched the Prince of Egypt (available on Netflix) as part of our Egyptian/R.E. lessons. We then discussed the power of prayer (link to R.E.). The children examined each scene in the storyboard and wrote a short prayer underneath that the character may say at that time. Alternatively, the pictures could be used to sequence the events in the story. Image 1: Mother putting Moses in the river to save his life. Image 2: Moses seeing the treatment of the slaves. Image 3: Moses begging his brother to let the slaves go. Image 4: Family preparing a house with lambs blood over the door. Image 5: Moses just about to part the sea. Image 6: Moses looking forward to the future at the end of the movie.

This is a page of images taken from Google all of which relate to Anglo Saxon life. Fantastic for children to create a ‘mood board’ style piece of work exploring all aspects of their lives. It includes images of runes, people, houses, mead halls, symbols and artifacts. I have also used to to create a ‘Final WOW’ at the end of a unit where children create an explanation of Anglo Saxon life and present it to the class. A great resource with plenty of uses!
