Achieve History: Ancient Vikings 1

Product Description

This title enables student to develop their historical knowledge and understanding of Viking society. Units of work explore the geographical spread and influence of the Vikings, their skills in boatbuilding and sailing, the roles of raiding and trade, the different classes in Viking society, the significance of honour in their way of life, and the achievements of Erik the Red. Skills are developed through interpreting primary sources, studying change and continuity, and locating and categorising information.
While very suitable for the regular classroom, each of the Achieve! History titles has been written at a literacy level that makes the pages appropriate for secondary school students who, because of poor reading skills, may struggle to comprehend regular classroom materials.
The CD-ROM contains all the pages that are featured in the book, as well as a file of illustrations that can be used for other work sheets. These documents can be easily edited to suit the needs of your students.
