Medieval Week!

Hi guys I'm back and today I'll be talking about Medieval Week (Which was last week). We did lots of fun things last week like having a giant minecraft Capture the Flag. We made medieval villages in minecraft over the  five weeks before the Capture The Flag. Another thing we did was that we were put into groups to research a certain topic about the medieval times. I was in a group with Fraser, Liam and Jack. We also had to teach the class about the topic we picked. The topic we picked was torture. No we are not weird for picking a gruesome topic (as some people might think that) we are courageous and amazing! Anyway...

Our lesson went well and when we explained how the torture devices worked we put nightmares in peoples mind. Something that went well was that we all remembered our lines and our power point went smoothly. Our quiz was good and everybody got the questions right. Something we could have done better is doing something other than a quiz because everybody did a quiz. An alternative could have been that you had to do something or you would get punished. The lesson I enjoyed the most was about the medieval knights. I liked this lesson because the end activity wasn't a quiz. It was a jousting contest where the one person was a horse and the other was the knight/jouster. The knight got on top of the horse and the horse went on to its knees and hands. Then the horse crawled forward while the knight, who was holding a cushion as a shield and a noodle as a weapon, tried to knock over the other knight and horse. The first person to fall off their horse or if the horse fell over, was the loser.

So that was the post for this week and I'll see you guys next time.
