In
Social Studies we investigate the Medieval world, how we got there, what
it was like to live at that time, and what caused its end. Though
traditionally centered on Europe, we also recognize that there was a
great deal going on all over the world at the same time. The
primary topics covered include:
- Geography
- The Norman Conquest and the Bayeux Tapestry
- Feudalism
- Castles: Offense and Defense
- Castle Life
- Knights
- Peasants and Village Life
- Religion (Crusades, Monastery, Pilgrimage, Cathedral, Islam)
- Towns, Trade, and Guilds
- The Black Death
- The Peasant' Revolt
