Students create life-size medieval knights in groups. They outline a student in the group and draw armor, a sword, and a helmet like a knight would have worn. The lesson comes with an anatomy of a knight reference sheet for students to get ideas. In the background, students write the chivalry codes of their knight and an ode about the Vikings they defeated which are both covered in a class reading. The lesson comes with:
▶️Printable Medieval Europe notes,
▶️A fantastic anticipatory set class reading with a worksheet
▶️A knight class reading, covering the lives and challenges of Medieval knights
▶️Anatomy of a knight handout that has amazing visuals for students to reference
▶️An examples sheet with step-by-step visuals
▶️A How-to-Ode mini-lesson
This project is a blast for the students. We always vote for the best knight and ode at the end of class!
