Today, you will be writing the last part of your stories.

Remember, most stories have a beginning, middle and end.

• In the beginning, establish your setting and characters (you wrote this on Tuesday).
• In the middle, you could add conflict and a problem to solve (you wrote this on yesterday).
• At the end there could be a dramatic rescue. The ending could be happy or sad.

Today, you need to write the end; could there be a dramatic rescue? The ending could be happy or sad.

Look back at your story maps that you created on Monday, don't forget to write today about:

• How you defeat/befriend your mythical beast.
• What could happen to your Viking hero after that? Does he become a leader/king? 
• How does your story end? Is it a happy or sad ending?

(Don't forget to get an adult to photograph and email your Viking stories to titan@studleygreen.wilts.sch.uk. We would love to see them!)

The Anglo-Saxon era came to an end on October 14, 1066 at the Battle of Hastings. The Norman-French army of William, the Duke of Normandy, defeated the English army under the Anglo-Saxon King Harold Godwinson. The Bayeux Tapestry is an embroidered cloth nearly 70 metres long and 50 centimetres tall that depicts the events leading up to the Norman conquest of England.
