Elephants- History16 April 2024 (by Miss Rowland (elephants)) |
The children are already enthusiastic about our new big question, 'Who would have lived in a medieval castle?'
This afternoon we started our History work on castles by learning about the Battle of Hastings. We now know how William the Conqueror became king and we know why he built castles in England. During the lesson, we had a go at painting a scene from the Bayeux tapestry- a famous embroided cloth that tells the story of the battle in 1066. Take a look at some pictures below.
