A map-based activity to help develop knowledge of Anglo-Saxon England.
There is an information power point with a map showing the Heptarchy -the -seven main Anglo-Saxon kingdoms (reveals the names alphabetically).
A separate pdf contains the activity which is to complete an outline version of the information map. This comes with both a more challenging version and a support version.
This means that they are suitable for adaptive teaching, by providing degrees of scaffolding whilst keeping the content the same.
The main version has the locations of the kingdoms marked out with the first letter of the kingdom for students to complete.
A more challenging version has the kingdom’s outlines marked but is otherwise blank for the students to write in the names.
There is also a version with the names on so that students can colour in the kingdoms and non-Anglo-Saxon areas.
As there were other kingdoms (especially at different times) and borders moved over time there is scope for an additional challenge of creating an alternative map -one good example being Cornwall. (or to add one local to your school!)
As well as a class-based activity this is suited for homework or printed out for ‘school at home’.
