About this worksheet
A Year 4 history writing task for the England National Curriculum unit on Anglo-Saxon settlement. It opens with a model PEEL paragraph about flooding in northern Germany and southern Scandinavia pushing families to look for farmland. Pupils then write two paragraphs of their own. The first, on the Roman departure, has sentence starters for each part. The second asks whether Vortigern's paid soldiers came to help or to take land, with no starters. The answer key gives model paragraphs that name Emperor Honorius, Hengist and Horsa, and land in Kent.
