Activities in this teaching pack include display posters to evaluate some of the graphics images used to match a particular topic, a shared reading text to produce a graphic image to reflect sails that might be flown on a Viking Long Ship and a template to select and record shapes that could be used to make a graphic on the theme of the Vikings.
The interactive presentation can be used to explore how to insert and adjust a range of different shapes to create a design for a Viking Long Ship sail.
This lesson is part of a computing scheme of work to get the children to select, combine and adjust different graphic shapes to create the design that could be used on a replica Viking longship sail. There are teaching activities for shared learning, differentiated worksheets to support independent learning and interactive presentations to introduce concepts and key skills.
