As part of their history topic on the Anglo-Saxons, the children in Year 4 have been learning how to weave. Using bits of card and thin thread they made simple looms. They then selected appropriate wool and coordinating colours to make an attractive placemat. The Anglo-Saxons would have made their clothes in a similar way 1500 years ago. (Although, they obviously wouldn’t have had the same range of colours to choose from!)
