The Middle of the Middle Ages Unit

Posted by Cindy on February 20, 2008

We’re having so much fun studying Medieval history!  After reading about various aspects of life, we’ve been doing a project every day or two to go along with that aspect.  The picture above shows the kid’s projects after learning about knights and armor.

Sorry, but after that picture the camera pooped out again.  The kiddos have also made a model of a castle and period costumes so far.  This week, we’ll be preparing a medieval feast, setting a period table and eating with the manners of the time.  I’m hoping to be able to snap pictures here and there, so hopefully, I’ll have more pictures to share by the end of the unit.

Middle Ages Unit Plans

Our Middle Ages unit is going to be so much fun!  This is one of my favorite time periods to study, and I have to admit that it’s going to be hard to tame the fun down to a manageable unit.

Here are the books I’m using as I plan our activities.
