Students try "hands on learning" throughout this
unit. They come to appreciate the difficulty of writing books while trying
to create illuminations, they research and create their coat of arms, and
build a replica of a building appropriate for their place in feudal society.

STUDENT ARTWORK ILLUMINATES OUR CLASSROOM
THE MIDDLE AGES MEETS THE INTERNET WHEN STUDENTS RESEARCH THEIR FAMILY COAT OF ARMS AND THEN CREATE THEIR OWN WORK OF ART.
