There are five main activities:
Introduce the Unit:
I like to start off the unit with an Anticipatory Set of T/F questions to pique and build background knowledge.
Reading & Activities:
Read the passages and complete the comprehension questions, organizers, and activities for each section.
Character Studies:
Create three learning stations for Charlemagne, Richard the Lionheart, and Joan of Arc. Complete one of the activities such as the biography organizers, character mini-booklets, or trading cards for each of the famous people.
Vocabulary Activities:
Introduce the vocabulary words with the real-life photo posters included. You could post these posters around the classroom and have students travel around to match up and define the words in their flip-flaps or use it as a separate activity. There is also a Spotlight on Vocabulary included in this pack. These posters are excellent to create an attractive bulletin board in a snap!
Tie it all Together:
Bring the students together for class discussions to check for understanding and further their critical thinking skills after each lesson. At the end of the unit, come back to revisit the Anticipatory Questions to check and correct their answers. There are also several other activities including maps, a timeline, castle-shaped flip book, feudalism pyramid, feudalism poster project, coat of arms project, unit test, and much much more.
