This afternoon we began with a review of The Hundred Years War, The Black Death, and Joan of Arc by discussing the questions she answered on Friday. Baylie's teacher in Georgia tasked us with studying an artist from the Renaissance. We agreed on Leonardo da Vinci. We watched a Brain Pop learning video to gain some overview knowledge on this 15th century inventor, sculptor, mathematician, and painter. We saw his famous works, "The Last Supper" and the "Mona Lisa". It was interesting to discover that he wrote in mirror script to help protect his work. Next, we read a two-page informational guide on Young Leonardo which outlined his life. We discovered he was born to unmarried parents and his mother was humble. He was raised in his father's household which gave him the benefit of an education and led him to an apprenticeship with a famed local artist. We completed a challenging vocabulary matching activity including words: humble, serving, guild, appreciated, patrons, notary, and advancement. Additionally, we began answering follow-up questions for the material read.
