Session 1
Today we are going to learn about a famous battle. Some of the first castles were built in Britain after the Norman invasion when the most famous battle in England took place – The Battle of Hastings.
Work through this pdf to learn more about the battle.
Activity:
Have a go at making some puppets of each King to re-enact the battle with you grown-up.
Click here for a template of the characters to use if you'd like.
You can use this animated version of The Bayeux Tapestry to help you remember the order of events.
Have fun!
