Vikings

We are studying the Vikings this term and have started off by looking at their homes.
We tested our memories and observation skills this week with a drawing activity. In groups we were given 1 minute to study a picture of the inside of a Viking home and then went back to our team table and drew what we could remember. The next person then had look at the picture and added to the drawing until we had all had a turn. 
We each got a second look at the picture and all agreed that the second time we really focused on the details. Our pictures were great!

Top Trumps Update

Congratulations to Craig for his valiant effort to become national Top Trumps champion. He so nearly made it to London!
He was in twelfth place on the second last day of the competition but was pipped at the post on the very last day, finishing thirteenth overall. As only the top twelve go through to the final it was a bit disappointing but well done Craig for your great attempt and we hope you enjoyed playing.
