Middle Ages (5th and 6th grade History) 

Teacher:  Melissa Mathes (melissamathes@gmail.com)



Description: This class will take a close look at the Middle Ages. Focus will be on the Medieval life, customs, knights, castles and more. There will be several projects throughout year. Homework will consist of brief reading with follow up activities. In class will focus on comprehension of text followed by an activity that will bring to life what they are learning. Any quizzes or tests will be announced ahead of time giving ample time for student preparation. Many resources will be provided to complement and enhance the provided text. This time period is too interesting to miss out on. 



Also I would like to try to arrange a field trip to Medieval Times late in the year ( will depend on COVID restrictions) but will keep all parents and students updated.

Mrs. Mathes will provide the text, Story of the Middle Ages, for your student.
