So you want to be a Viking?

On Thursday 26th February, P4g and P4m went to the National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh as part of their topic on the Vikings. They saw a Viking grave, a film about the Vikings, were able to handle some Viking artefacts and some children even dressed up as Vikings!

I enjoyed watching the Viking show because it was funny and the Viking warrior ran in roaring! Eva

I enjoyed touching the Viking sword. Ty

We saw a Viking skeleton with no feet. He had been buried with a key. Ciaran

We got to hold the head of a spear and an axe head from Viking times. Harvey

I liked seeing the logboat. They are boats made out of curved logs. They are different to Viking longboats, which are much wider. The log boats were much narrower. Sophie

I liked when Mrs Clark was chosen to be Odin, the Viking God! Jennie

I really, really enjoyed it because we got to feel what the Viking artefacts were like and we got to see the skeleton. Lennox

We saw a Viking ring which had a red stone in it. It must have been for a rich person. Lucie

  1. Hi Primary 4,

    It sounds like you had a great time visiting The National Museum of Scotland and learning more about The Vikings. I didn’t know that Mrs Clark had dressed up as Odin – I think she’ll have enjoyed that:).

  2. Hello P4g,

    I’m glad you enjoyed your trip to the museum. It does sound awesome! I’m really diasppointed that I couldn’t go with you. Perhaps you could make up a quiz about what you have learnt about Vikings to ask me when I get back?!
    Keep working hard!

    See you soon.
