The organiser also explains how Viking settlements developed, including the establishment of Danelaw. Key vocabulary, such as “saga,” “oral tradition,” and “stereotype,” encourages critical thinking and helps children consider balanced viewpoints on Viking history. It is perfect for developing historical enquiry skills and dispelling common misconceptions about the Viking era.
