This resource provides a different way of developing knowledge of the kingdoms in Anglo-Saxon England.
It involves matching ‘cards’ that have some very simple information on them.
The knowledge covered is based on a list of the Heptarchy (plus three other names) along with a sentence about each one-such as ‘Kingdom of the South Saxons’.
There are two separate yet linked activities:
The first is a set of printable ‘cards’ with place name and the sentence about it – they can be used for matching pairs etc.
Second is similar but set out as a set of ‘dominoes’ to allow for greater variety and a degree of support.
The kingdoms/terms are:
Anglo-Saxon East Anglia Essex Heptarchy Kent Mercia Northumbria Picts Saxons Strathclyde Sussex Wessex

As there were other kingdoms (especially at different times) there is scope for an additional challenge of creating additional ‘cards’ or ‘dominoes’. (one good example being Cornwall).
