Hi all, Caspian is back!<\/p>\n
I have not been blogging for a few days because I have been learning and researching a lot. I have researched: The Spanish Armada, The Vikings, Temperature, and tried out my spelling skills. I did a spelling test and got 19\/20, I spelt fulfil as fulfill. I also did a maths test and got 10\/10. In the Spanish Armada comprehension I did I did well as my Mum said and in my temperature I got quite a few correct questions. I have been doing more maths questions than I can remember. Its been a great few days!<\/p>\n
The Vikings spread throughout Europe in 800 AD;<\/p>\n
They took direction from the stars;<\/p>\n
King Cnut ruled Denmark, England and Norway. He compared himself to God but when he tried to control the waves, obviously they did not obey;<\/p>\n
Vikings gave their swords names;<\/p>\n
They were termed berserkirs – warriors who got wound up for battle;<\/p>\n
They boiled their water by inserting hot stones;<\/p>\n
Viking children learned how to ride horses and boys had to be ready for battle by the time they reached 16;<\/p>\n
They thought the end of the world was the edge of the ocean;<\/p>\n
The days of the week which still have Viking names are Wednesday Woden, Thursday Thor, Friday Frida.<\/p>\n
Father Christmas was originally the god Yule which is where we get Yuletide from;<\/p>\n
I have written my name in runes but the Viking alphabet does not have a C and a P so I am As<\/em>ian.<\/p>\n That’s all for now, z\u00e0i ji\u00e0n \uff01\uff01\uff01(That’s Chinese for “Goodbye!!!”)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hi all, Caspian is back!
