The Vikings Are Coming

Our school term subject this year is the Vikings.

We did work on longhouses and played a Viking game called Hnefatafl which is a bit like chess, because the intent is to capture the king, but it is different because of the layout and the ways to win. There are two sides: the defensive and the offensive.

The offensives goal is to capture the king.

The defensives goal is to get the king to a corner.

Jason made us this Hnefatafl board.
