Part 2 Tasks:
Bronze- Use the first table template and fill in the information for each source. What does it tell us about the Anglo-Saxons? What does it not tell us?
Silver- Use the second table template and fill in the information for each source. Then, write a paragraph to explain which artefacts you think are the most important for archaeologists to explain what has happened in the past.
Gold- Pick 4 of the sources from the Staffordshire Hoard. Write a non- chronological report in your books, using each artefact as a heading to explain what the artefact is and what it tells us. In conclusion explain which artefact you would find most useful and why.
