The Battle of Hastings Homework

 
Picture
​Tell the story of the Battle of Hastings as a comic strip on one side of A4.
Here are some events to include (they are in the wrong order):
  • Other Saxons do the same to meet their doom
  • First the Norman archers, then the foot soldiers try to break the shield wall but both fail
  • Harold is shot in the eye and the Normans win. William is crowned King of England.
  • The Norman cavalry attack
  • Godwinson and his Saxon troops are tired from the Battle of Stamford Bridge
  • Some Saxons leave the shield wall to chase after retreating Norman cavalry, but they are isolated and die.
  • Norman archers can now fire from close range into the Saxon army.
  • The Saxons take a great position on Senlac Hill high up with s shield wall
