Coat of Arms

Our Jumpstart today was a classic word scramble.  Students used their prior knowledge together with some decoding skills to uncover our mystery vegetables.

Our time was short, but we were hard at work on our medieval times projects.  Students continued their investigation of knights, armor, and weapons.  They then chose symbols of heraldry to represent themselves on the battlefield.  They also choose between writing their own minstrel song or creating an advertisement for the medieval equipment they studied.


We watched the video "Austin's Butterfly" and looked at how feedback and drafting can be a great way to make improvements on work.  Check out our progress from the first to final drafts!
