ACTIVITY SHEETS for Kids
We have a small range of Pictish activity sheets for kids available. You can purchase
these very cheaply as a set. All sheets are shown and
described below.
Some are quick, some are longer and take more thought or involve making
things. Most are single pages, but some are more. Some can be used
straight off. Others are designed to be used after a little learning,
which our website can help with of course. All of them double as
colouring sheets and will keep your pupils or children amused for hours.
If you let us know what school you're at (if you're a teacher) or what
county/state you're in (for others), you can even request a free sample on nashfordpublishing@googlemail.com
(but please note that some sheets are excluded from this offer). For activity sheets from other periods of British
history, click here.
Just click the appropriate button to use your
credit or debit card through PayPal (or use your PayPal account if you have
one), to receive the sheets by e-mail, usually within a day. We mail
them electronically as pdf files that you can print out at your
convenience. Our sheets are very competitively priced and contain many
more illustrations than other sheets on the market: all exclusive to
Nash Ford Publishing.

Archaeology Sheet This sheet
describes a number of different fields and asks you to choose
which ones you think would be most likely to have interesting
archaeology hidden underground. It then asks you to decide
which materials you would be most likely to dig up. Lastly you
can draw the grass in on a cross-section to show how tall it
grows over different features, forming lines seen on aerial
photos.
