Charlie and I finished our study of the Middle Ages today and read through the unit in the textbook. We watched BrainPop on The Middle Ages and reviewed - the timeline, the importance of land ownership to the feudal system, control of the King by the Church, The Crusades, and the Magna Carta. We also researched how Ireland celebrates Christmas. At the end of our class, Charlie began construction of a shield, sword and frog mouth helmet, armour we saw while exploring medieval armour on Pinterest. He will make the helmet with paper mache.
