What educators are saying

This packet was a great addition to our curriculum unit on the middle ages. Easily modified for my fourth graders who wanted to learn more about monks and nuns (especially nuns as our core text focused heavily on just monks). Thanks!

In Western Europe during the Middle Ages, Christianity was the main religion. And at that time, all Christians were Catholic (at least in Western Europe). Everyone’s life was dictated by religion: from morning until night, from birth until death. Upper class and lower class alike had to follow the rules of the Church. This lesson takes a look at a few of the many religious jobs during the Middle Ages.
