Our Year 3 and 4 pupils took a trip to Danelaw Dark Age Village in November as part of their Vikings topic.
Due to pupil numbers, the Year Groups went on separate days.
While one group were actually at the Viking Village, the other group held a live video conference with a Viking via Skype, organised with the co-operation of the education team at the Jorvik Viking Centre, York.
I’d love to hear more about how the Skype-a-Viking went. Sounds like a great way of making a history lesson more interactive without the associated travel costs and time.
