I loved teaching my students about Medieval Times
last year! We had a lot of fun learning about knights and castles and
everything in between! As a culminating activity, student built a castle to show what they had
learned.
I didn’t give them too many directions as I wanted them to
use their creativity to the fullest. I sent a letter home explaining that they had two
weeks to build a castle, and that it was an at-home project only. I also attached the rubric so that parents knew
what I would be assessing.
I was thrilled and amazed at what returned to school
on the due date! Castles made out of recyclable materials, Legos, and even cake! Students were so eager to present their work!

This is the resource I used
for this project. Since I know that an at-home project is not always
ideal with some groups, I have included suggestions and ideas for in-class work
as well. And, as we all know, some students need more direction than others, so I
have created some planning and worksheets as well.
