Viking Unit Study


Hi guys! Today I wanted to share with you what we've been up to in our homeschool. The boys have been fascinated with Vikings so we started a mini unit study. Here are just some of the activities we did so far. I'll share more as we complete them.

The boys did a fun directed drawing of a Viking. We followed this video here. 

Once their drawing was complete they wrote down their narration. 

The boys also completed a map of the viking world you can grab this map here. 

completed map and narration

This was their favorite activity making the viking paper dolls. I got the printable from 

They gave their dolls traditional Viking names

We have been reading aloud from Viking Adventure by Clyde Robert. 
The boys have been turning each chapter into a diary entry. 

We write from the point of view of one of the main characters. We talked about 1st person
vs. 3rd person. We go over all the main events in the chapter and the boys write their diary entry. 

For the diaries we're using blank books I got from Michael's along time ago.

Resources:

The Usborne books are our main spines.



We've been having so much fun learning all about these warriors. I'll share more activities once we complete them.
