What is included in The Anglo Saxons Pack? 

This resource pack features a detailed and engaging PowerPoint presentation exploring the key events during the Anglo Saxon period from 410AD - 1066AD specifically designed for Key Stage 2 pupils. The slides outline Britain’s transformation after the Romans withdrew in 410 AD. Anglo-Saxon settlers arrived from 449 AD, establishing kingdoms by 500 AD and settled village life by 550 AD. Christianity spread through missionaries like St Columba and St Augustine, with centres such as Lindisfarne playing a key role. By 600–700 AD, Anglo-Saxon art and culture flourished, shaping early medieval English society.

In addition, the pack includes a set of sequencing cards and a printable timeline activity. These hands-on resources allow children to place important Anglo- Saxon events in chronological order, helping them visualise how history unfolds over time. This interactive element strengthens comprehension, reinforces prior learning, and encourages collaborative discussion as pupils justify their choices and reflect on historical cause and effect.
