We began our new History topic with a picture source.  We had no idea what our new period of study was, so we had to use clues in the picture to make inferences.  We used our enquiry skills to make some super hypotheses.  Joe thought the cliffs in the background could be the White Cliffs of Dover and he thought this made sense as the people attacking could have come from across the Channel!  A few of us thought the invaders could be Vikings.  We had lots of further questions about the picture, such as 'Why do the shields they are carrying have different patterns on them?'.
