Medieval Unit!!!

This unit study has gotten off to be a blast but has shown me that there is no way I could homeschool this way because they would never complete school by 18! It is so easy to just.......get too deep! The internet has been an incredible resource for homeschooling. I will do my best to get a summary of materials together over Thanksgiving break but I make no promises!
We continue to use Story of the World mixed with History Odyssey for our guide. So far we have discussed the Feudal System, Castles, and Knights. We made a castle model with a preprinted template. NOTE it is NOT EASY TO MAKE unless you really like cutting! But it was still a good model.

Okay so maybe they didn't have zebra print in the Middles Ages......but it works for Little Chickie!














Big Mac's came out great as well!











There are few resources that have been great additions to our study:
This has been great for all areas of Medieval study and the pics are awesome!
Some of our readings have been:
Minstrel in the Tower, Robin Hood, King Arthur, A Door in the Wall on CD, the Middle Ages series on DVD from the Schlessinger Media group, Midnight Magic, and other various books about castles, knight, and the times.
