What was actually used

Blue Print

This is the blueprint Leyla and I came up with for the Medieval Day stage

Medieval Day Discussion

The 6th graders were very attentive when we performed our play, as they sat in front of the stages (technically in the mud and on the cathedral). I believe our performance was quite successful.

Possible improvements:

• bring in the students by social status, so that it is staggered and they can become familiar with the space they are working in and be able to recognize the different social classes
  1. serfs
  2. merchants and shopkeepers
  3. knights/guards
  4. nobles (lords and ladies)
• use music to bring them in the environment
• more color (fields are green, river is blue, castle is grey)
• give them the map of the town before they discover the space
• add more props (herbs and 'poison' at the apothecary station)
