Dear all Emerald page visitors, 

Welcome to our class webpage! Here you will find information about our latest topic, links to useful websites, interesting facts about what we learn about, and much more! Over the year, I will add more photos, information, and other features!

If you need to contact me, you can email me at samp@netherfield.e-sussex.sch.uk or message me directly on ClassDojo. Parents can also make appointments to talk to me in more detail via the school office. 

Term 1 2024 - '1066'

1066

1066

It’s probably the most famous date in English history... we’re travelling back to 1066! King Edward is dying, so we’ll find out who is vying for the role of king. We’ll research the events of 1066 using books and online information. What was the Battle of Hastings, and how did it change our country? We’ll discover what life was like for Norman people, what they ate, how they lived, and what jobs they did. We’ll be history detectives, looking closely at the Bayeux Tapestry and sketching parts of it. We’ll use different source materials to research Norman castles and online maps to locate them. We’ll find out about the Domesday Book and why it is still useful to historians today.

Below, a copy of the knowledge organiser for each topic is available to download in the document list.
