Year 5 had an incredible Viking WOW Day! We began by exploring the history of Viking shields, learning about their designs, patterns, and the meanings behind the colours they used. Using this knowledge, we created our very own shields.
We also looked at Viking runes. After discovering how the runic alphabet worked, we had a go at writing our names and even created secret messages for our friends to decode. It was amazing to see how Vikings communicated in such a unique way.
To finish off our busy day, we relaxed with some Viking word searches and even learned how to draw our very own Vikings.
