In this lesson, you will learn what happens when light travels through two transparent materials. You are going to learn what refraction is, how you can use it. There is a chance to carry out an investigation to show that refraction is occurring. For this lesson you will need a piece of paper and a pencil.

If you would like to take part in the demonstration you will need a piece of plain paper and a transparent glass of water. If you don’t have these things then don’t worry! You can still complete the lesson and watch the teacher’s demonstration.

Topic

Who were the Anglo Saxons and where did they come from? In this lesson that we are doing at school, you will look at the Anglo-Saxons who settled in the British Isles a long time ago. Many of us have Anglo-Saxon ancestors yet they were originally ‘invaders’. Does that make us ‘migrants’? Follow the lesson on this powerpoint: Lesson1AngloSaxonsPPTKS2History

If you would like a taught lesson, this is an interesting resource from Oak Academy – an enquiry into ‘How Dark was the Dark Ages?’ – meaning, how much information do we have about this time in our past? This particular lesson focuses on the Anglo-Saxons: https://teachers.thenational.academy/lessons/the-arrival-of-the-anglo-saxons-c5j68c

D and T

Use ‘Architectural Design Sheet’ resource -Architectural-Design-Sheet (1) as a prompt to design own building. Think about all the different architects we looked at last week and the distinguishing features of their work – will you use any of these? Or will you use features of the periods we looked at – renaissance or art-deco? How practical will your design be? Will people actually be able to use it?
