European Feudalism Experience
Hello! Today we experienced what life was like in feudal Europe in a simulation. All students were assigned a role including serfs, knights, lords, and monarch. Students participated in a 7 step activity where they were acting out what each group might have done in feudal Europe including surviving an "attack" from invaders! All in all, it was a fun day by all. Over the weekend students should be completing the reading notes for chapter 2 and studying from them the responsibilites and activities of each layer in the systerm. They can also be working on the vocabulary from the focus sheet. (This can be found on prior posts.) We will discuss reading notes and do an activity involving the vocabulary on Monday in preparation for the quiz on Tuesday. The quiz will have 15 multiple choice focusing mostly on the vocabulary and an essay.
