Viking Longships
This computing scheme of work for Key Stage Two gets the children to select, combine and adjust different graphic shapes to create the design for a replica Viking longship sail. The class can practise different ways of moving, shading and resizing graphic shapes which can be combined into an illustration of a Viking.
Select, combine and adjust different graphic shapes to create the design that could be used on a replica Viking longship sail
