What's in the school support folder

A set of six children's stories from Matilda who grew up in Anglo-Saxon Britain and witnessed a Viking attack on Farnham, to Violet whose two brothers fought in the First World War. Other children tell stories of Farnham and Farnham's Castle in medieval, Tudor and Civil War times.
​
Two large timelines - one for KS1 and a slightly more detailed one for KS2 - so that children can understand the historical context of the facts they are learning.
​
A number of line drawing sheets of the key characters in the folder that teachers can photocopy and pupils can colour in.
 
A game of Castle Attack for four players, with counters and dice and a word puzzle.
