The Middle Ages

We have all enjoyed stepping back to the Middle Ages with Liz and her class this spring. They have studied history, learned traditional English folk songs, played Medieval tunes on the recorder, drawn castles, and acted ancient tales. Here are some highlights. My photos aren't super-great because I had to crop out kids.

They studied heraldry and designed their own coats-of-arms and shields.

Even P.E. took on a study of the Middle Ages~
They learned to pillow-joust.

They learned various forms of archery.

They wrote their first biggish research reports.
Liz took up the topic of "Peasants in the Middle Ages."

The culmination of the spring was the production of Robin Hood.

Liz was King Richard.

What a wonderful way to learn history.
