Just gathering all my Anglo-Saxon posts into one place to make finding them a bit easier. This was a very hands-on unit study, with lots of resources, map making and activities. The children carried out some literature work based on Beowulf, and created a Beowulf newspaper. The study culminated with the children giving a fabulous presentation of all they had learnt.
