Our Medieval Reports

We are starting our medieval reports. The last week we have gotten information from books and online research sites. There are many topics to pick from out of our medieval subject sheet, such as Black Death, knights, medicine, hunting, jousting, and even clothing. Or we could pick our own topic that has something to do with the medieval time period. We are learning a lot about our topics that we have chosen. Such as medicine, for toothaches they would mix rose oil, a poeny root, and sulpher, or that Ring Around the Rosie was based off of what happened with the Black Death (Bubonic Plague). We will start our rough draft soon and finish our reports after spring break. What new information did you learn about medieval times?
