The Vikings

by Mandy Barrow
 
 

 

The Viking Age in Britain began about 1,200 years ago in the 9th Century AD and lasted for just over 200 years.

About the year 800, bands of fierce raiders began to attack our coasts. They were the Vikings (also called the Danes although they didn't just come from Denmark. See below).

The Vikings came across the North Sea, just as the Anglo-Saxons had done 400 years earlier. In time, like the , the Vikings made their home here. They drove the Saxons out of part of the country and took it for themselves.

King Alfred, Saxon king of Wessex, fought them in a great battle, but he could not drive them right away and had to let them have part of the country, called Danelaw.

Lessons on The Vikings

The Cunning History Teacher’s Lesson Plans on the Vikings, offer students with a detailed understanding of the events, people, and forces that shaped the Viking Age.

One of the key themes of our Lesson Plans is the examination of the Viking society and culture. Students will learn about their daily life, including their social classes, family structure, and religious beliefs. They will also learn about their seafaring capabilities and the technology they used for their voyages.

Another important aspect of the Lesson Plans is the examination of the Viking’s expansion and impact on Europe. Students will learn about their raids, trade, and settlements in Europe, and the ways in which it affected the people living in the areas they conquered. They will also learn about the cultural exchange between the Vikings and the people they encountered and the lasting impact it had on European society.

We also include a focus on the legacy of the Vikings. Students will learn about the ongoing impact of the Vikings on European culture and history, as well as the ways in which the Viking Age continues to shape the continent and its people. They will also learn about the efforts to recognise and understand the Vikings, and the ways in which contemporary society can learn from and respond to this history.

Overall, our Lesson Plans offer a comprehensive and engaging look at the history of the Vikings. Through a combination of primary source analysis, critical thinking, and historical context, students will gain a deeper understanding of this complex and important period of history. These lesson plans are perfect for any teacher looking to provide their students with a detailed and thoughtful look at the Viking Age and its impact on the world.

The Vikings

viking homework tasks

Who were the Vikings?

The Vikings came from all around Scandinavia (where Norway, Sweden and Denmark are today). They sent armies to Britain about the year 700 AD to take over some of the land, and they lived here until around 1050.

Even though the Vikings didn’t stay in Britain, they left a strong mark on society – we’ve even kept some of the same names of towns. They had a large settlement around York and the Midlands, and you can see some of the artefacts from Viking settlements today.

Top 10 facts

  • The Vikings are also called Norsemen, and came from Scandinavia.
  • They spoke Norse , which had an alphabet made up of characters called runes.
  • They travelled over the sea in longships, which are long, narrow wooden boats that could be sailed in both deep and shallow water.
  • The Vikings left their homeland because they were looking for better places to farm than the kind of terrain that Scandinavia had.
  • The Vikings first attacked Britain in 787 AD, but didn’t start to invade and settle in the British Isles until 793 .
  • In 878, King Alfred the Great defeated the Vikings in battle and had them sign a treaty saying they had to keep to their own land in England – this section of land was called Danelaw.
  • Jorvik was a large Viking kingdom around York ; the last king of Jorvik was Eric Bloodaxe in 954.
  • Viking warriors believed that when they died in battle, they went to Valhalla – this is where the king of the gods lived, named Odin.
  • England once had a Viking king: King Canute ruled from 1016-1035, and his descendants ruled until 1042.
  • A few weeks before the Anglo-Saxons were defeated in the Battle of Hastings in 1066 , they defeated Viking warriors near York, led by Harald Hardrada at the Battle of Stamford Bridge.

Did you know?

  • The word ‘Viking’ means ‘a pirate raid’ in the Norse language, which is what the Vikings spoke.
  • ‘-by’, as in Corby or Whitby, means ‘farm’ or ‘town’
  • ‘-thorpe’, as in Scunthorpe, means ‘village’
  • The Viking alphabet, ‘Futhark’, was made up of 24 characters called runes. Each one stood for entire words or gods, as well as sounds.
  • There was a large Viking community around York called Jorvik. Archaeologists have found out a lot about the Vikings thanks to the artefacts they found there.
  • The Vikings kept long benches in their homes that they’d use to sit on during the day, and then to sleep on at night. Only rich people had beds.
  • In Viking times, people usually just took baths once a week! This was often on Saturdays.
  • The Normans from France who defeated the Anglo-Saxons in the Battle of Hastings were actually descendants of Vikings! Vikings settled around more places than just Britain – they went to Ireland , Iceland, Greenland, France and Spain too.

viking homework tasks

The Vikings wanted new land because the places where they came from in Scandinavia – Norway, Sweden and Denmark – weren’t very easy to live in. It was hard to grow crops, which meant there wasn’t a lot of food as the population got bigger. Britain and Europe had plenty of good farmland , so the Vikings tried to claim some of that land for themselves.

Even though the Anglo-Saxons were pretty well established in England, the Vikings would turn up every now and then to raid towns and take a bit of land. Sometimes, instead of fighting the Vikings, the Anglo-Saxons decided it was better to pay them money so they’d stay away. This payment was called Danegeld.

The first Viking attack on England was in 787 on the Isle of Portland. The Vikings went home straight afterwards, but they came back to England in 793 and raided a monastery at Lindisfarne. Monastaries made easy targets because the monks who lived there didn’t have any weapons, and they did have money and food.

The Vikings believed in many different gods , and they thought making sacrifices to the gods kept them all happy. They also told stories about the gods, called Norse mythology . Some of the gods included:

  • Thor , the god of thunder
  • Idun , the goddess of spring
  • Odin , the king of gods and the god of war

The Vikings believed that if a warrior died while fighting in battle, he’d go to Valhalla , which is where Odin was. Other heroes who had died would also be there. Odin would send his warrior maidens, called Valkyries, across the sky to ferry dead warriors to Valhalla.

Viking warriors were very good fighters. They’d wear helmets and carry shields to defend themselves, and they’d also have one of these weapons:

  • spear – a leaf shape or spike at the end of a wooden shaft
  • sword – these were expensive to make and usually double-edged, and warriors would decorate the hilts
  • battle axe – an axe with a long handle, and cheaper to make than a sword

Boats that the Vikings built are called longships – they are long, narrow boats that can be used in both deep and shallow water, making them perfect for travelling over the ocean and carrying lots of warriors onto the shore. Longships were symmetrical, meaning they looked the same at the front as they did at the back. They’d often have dragon heads carved at either end.

VIkings sailed all the way across the Atlantic Ocean to Newfoundland in North America in their longships!

Viking homes were long too – they were called longhouses ! They were rectangular, made from wood and were usually just one big room without any inside walls. There would be one big fire pit in the centre for cooking and keeping the house warm. The roof was covered in thatch, and there was a hole in the middle for smoke from the fire to go through. Benches around the house would be used both to sit on and to sleep on.

Most clothes that the Vikings had were made from wool, but they also had some clothes made from linen. They used dyes made from plants and minerals to make red, green, brown, yellow and blue, so their clothes were very colourful.

Viking men wore a long shirt, trousers with a drawstring tie and a coat with a belt around the waist. Viking women wore long dresses with a tunic over the top that was held up by two brooches pinned at the shoulders. Both men and women wore woollen socks and leather shoes.

Alfred the Great defeated the Vikings at the Battle of Ethandun (in modern day Wiltshire). After this, he and the Vikings agreed to set boundaries for their kingdoms. The area that the Vikings lived in was called Danelaw, and it meant that the land south of the diagonal line between London and Chester belonged to King Alfred (Wessex). Danelaw eventually became smaller and smaller as the Anglo-Saxons took more and more control.

Jorvik was a large Viking kingdom around York. The last king of Jorvik was Eric Bloodaxe, who was driven out in 954. The Vikings in England then agreed to be ruled by the king of England rather than having their own king.

But, that doesn’t mean that the king of England couldn’t be a Viking! The first Viking king of England was King Canute in 1016. He ruled until 1035, and then his sons were kings after that – but only for a total of seven years. Harold Harefoot was king until 1040, then Hardicanute was king until 1042.

Names to know:

King Canute (ruled as king of England from 1016-1035) – Canute was the first Viking king of England. He won a battle against Edmund II that divided their kingdoms, but when Edmund died Canute ruled both kingdoms. His sons, Harold Harefoot and then Hardicanute, ruled until 1042.

Harald Hardrada (c.1015-1066) – Harald Hardrada was the king of Norway. He led Viking armies into England, but was defeated at the Battle of Stamford Bridge in York by King Harold II.

Leif Erikson (c.970-1020) – Leif Erikson was a famous Viking explorer who sailed all the way to North America. 

Eric Bloodaxe (died in 954) – Eric Bloodaxe was king of the Viking kingdom of Jorvik between 947-948 and 952-954. He was the last king of Jorvik before it became part of England.

5 under-the-radar players the Vikings need to make the jump this season

Joe nelson | 3 hours ago.

Brandon Powell catches a pass during Vikings organized team activities.

  • Minnesota Vikings

The 2024-25 Minnesota Vikings outlook isn't garnering high hopes from the national media , but that doesn't mean there isn't localized confidence at TCO Performance Center in Eagan, Minn. But if the Vikings are going to surprise the doubters, they'll need a handful of players to make the leap this season.

That's why training camp and the preseason will be a critical tone-setting period for at least five players, who we believe are under-the-radar names that will be critical to a winning season. And because they're under the radar, we're not talking about Minnesota's spring splash signings like Sam Darnold, Jonathan Greenard, Blake Cashman and Andrew Van Ginkel. Let's dig in...

1. Brandon Powell, WR

Powell is locked and loaded as Minnesota's No. 3 wide receiver behhind the elite duo of Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison . Powell had 29 receptions for 324 yards and a touchdown last season, but he's likely going to be on the field more in 2024-25 and working short and intermediate routes while Jefferson and Addison open up the field.

Vikings quarterbacks targeted Powell 44 times last season, but with K.J. Osborn now playing for the Patriots, that frees up the WR3 role and the 75 targets Osborn had. If Powell isn't the guy who steps up, then it will have to be Jalen Nailor, Trent Sherfield or another unproven receiver on the roster.

2. Robert Tonyan, TE

No player on the Vikings was targeted more times than T.J. Hockenson (127) last season. If Jefferson is healthy all season he'll be the unquestioned target king, but Hockenson's role as a tight end is critical to helping open things up for Jefferson and Addison. With Hockenson probably missing the first 4-6 weeks of the season as he rehabs his torn ACL, Tonyan is going to be asked to fill the hole.

Tonyan, 30, had just 11 receptions with the Bears last season but two seasons ago he hauled in 53 passes from Aaron Rodgers for 470 yards and a pair of touchdowns. By all accounts he has looked fantastic during organized team activities and mandatory minicamp, and he has a chance to help ease any concerns the Vikings have about the tight end position until Hockenson returns.

3. Jerry Tillery, DL

Tillery is on a one-year prove-it contract and the opportunity to rush the passer from the defensive line be huge in defensive coordinator Brian Flores' scheme.

Think about it like this: Tillery can line up anywhere on the D-line in Minnesota's 3-4 defense and Flores could find creative ways to get Tillery in one-on-one situations with his blitz-heavy attack. And while Danielle Hunter and D.J. Wonnum formed a good pass-rush duo last season, the refreshed roster in 2024-25 will feature rookie Dallas Turner and proven edge rushers Jonathan Greenard and Andrew Van Ginkel.

Tillery had 31 tackles and two sacks to go along with 29 pressures with the Raiders last season, according to Pro Football Focus. The 6-foot-6, 295-pounder was a first-round pick by the Chargers in 2019 and was ultimately cut midway through the 2022 season, which led him to the Raiders.

It's up to Tillery to live up to his former first-round hype, and this is a great opportunity to take the step and shed the draft bust label.

4. The guards... anyone?

The Vikings have two good tackles in Christian Darrisaw and Brian O'Neill and a solid enough center in Garrett Bradbury, but good luck finding Randal McDaniel or David Dixon walking through the door to start at left and right guard. Instead, the Vikings clearly are having a guard competition between Blake Brandel, Ed Ingram and Dalton Risner.

Brandel is thought to be an early favorite to win the left guard job, which if true would leave Ingram battling Risner for the right guard job. Risner was a good starting left guard after he arrived last September and Ingram has continued to struggle in pass protection.

Ingram has started 32 games at right guard since being drafted in the second round in 2022 and last season he was charged with allowing five sacks and 15 quarterback hits on 42 total pressures, according to PFF.

5. Any cornerback behind the top two

The pressure is really on Byron Murphy Jr. and Shaq Griffin as the top two corners on the roster, but the Vikings desperately need some depth corners to take the next step. Last year's second-round pick, Mehki Blackmon, will be one to watch during camp while Akayleb Evans and Andrew Booth Jr., both members of the infamous 2022 draft class, are in serious danger of sliding down the depth chart.

The pressure is even greater if rookie Khyree Jackson lives up to the hype a strong one-on-one corner and undrafted free agent Dwight McGlothern keeps raising eyebrows with solid practices.

Murphy and Griffin certainly need to be good, but any of the others making the jump will be huge.
