Medieval Society : Stand-Alone Worksheets |
|
| 1. |
The Origins of the Calendar
A printable worksheet: students design their own calendar, designed to illustrate the origins of the names of the months of the year (I usually set this as a Christmas Holiday homework so the calendar is going to be useful for a whole year!) |
 |
| 2. |
Produce your own coat of arms
A printable worksheet, ideal for a couple of homeworks. Students enjoy designing a coat of arms which illustrates their interests and personalities, using the traditional colour schemes and sybolism. |

| 3. |
Crime and Punishment in the Middle Ages
A kinaesthetic history unit! Students start by considering how guilt was determined in the Middle Ages. They then engage in a role-play exercise where the class acts as a "jury" and the defence and prosection teams have to go through trial by water, battle and fire. Once guilt or innocence has been established, the exercise is rounded off with a consideration of which punishment should be inflicted! |
