This week has been a really busy Viking week!
In Learning across the curriculum, we made animations about a Viking Saga. A Viking saga is story which the Vikings told about their families and these were passed down from generation to generation. We had to make characters and scenes for our characters to move on. They had shields and axes. We used an app called StopMotion on the ipad on which we took a series of pictures which the app then runs together to make a short film.
We also learnt about Viking longhouses and how the whole family lived together with their animals. They had long benches for beds which had skins and animals skins for covers. The toilet was a hut outside the longhouse,
We also designed and painted Viking shields. We had to make them symmetrical which is harder than it looks!
