You will need to close the quiz before you can move on. Click Next Activity to start the lesson video. You can pause the video when directed and return to this video at any point if you need to refresh what you learnt. Sometimes, additional worksheets or knowledge organisers are also available so click through to Next Activity to see if any are available for your task.
Each week please try to complete the English and maths tasks, including activities set for reading and times tables. The other activities are optional but we would hope that you would like to give them a try too! We appreciate working from home is tricky so just do your best.

Viking longships The Viking raids were aided by their swift, sleek mode of transport- the longship. Watch this clip to find out more about how the longships were built. Then, watch this clip to find out how Vikings’ skills as shipbuilders and sailors enabled them to travel so far from their homeland.
Activity 1 Now have a go at drawing your own Viking longship. Use the step-by-step guide for how to draw the ship. Begin by sketching in pencil (as lightly as possible as this will be rubbed out at the end) and then use a black pen to go over your initial pencil drawing. Alternatively, play this video and pause at each step. Looking for inspiration? Have a look at these WAGOLLs from last year (in resources below).
Activity 2 Write a paragraph (or two) to explain why Viking longships were built the way they were and why this made them so effective. You might want to re-watch the videos for this.

| Optional additional task: Write an advert for a Viking longship – list all of its features (go back to the videos if you need a recap) and make it sound as appealing as possible! | |||
