More About Anglo-Saxons
The Anglo-Saxons came to England a long time ago. They mixed with the people who were already there. They made new towns and farms. They had their own way of life and rules.
Today, many words we use come from them. Words like "house" and "mother" are from Old English. Their way of life helped build the country we live in now.
Even after they were gone, their ideas stayed. We still see their farms and towns today. They are a big part of our story!
