Viking Day with Year 3

On Monday 27^th March it was Viking day. It took place in the hall. We had Viking day to learn about Vikings.

First of all, we got a brown cloth. We pretended to cut down a big brown tree and then we sat on the ship (brown cloth) and pretended to row the boat.

Next we learnt about a shield wall. We had to stand shoulder to shoulder and our shields overlapped other people’s shields. The Viking (Njal) taught us how to protect us from enemies when they’re going to aim at our legs. We put the shield down to the legs, but, they are going to aim at our heads we put the shield to our heads and so on.

After a while, Miss Jack and Mrs Silverman dressed up as monks. Njal gave them silver and gold so we could invade them, later on we had to CHASE Miss Jack for her gold!

Later on Njal took us outside, he got a piece of rock and steel he used a cloth too. He rubbed the steel and rock together and tried to catch a spark on the cloth to make fire and it worked! I couldn’t believe it.

After a while Miss Jack sold us to the Vikings! Chloe and Sophia had to stand in wee! We had to beat them too. We made underwear Jessica made a bracelet too.

At Viking day I learnt so, so much stuff. It was such a good day I enjoyed it so much.
