In this innovative approach to teaching history, students step into the medieval world of a knight, a carpenter, a scribe, and a duchess with the help of four art masterpieces, including a tapestry, a stained glass window, and an illuminated manuscript. Each art poster is accompanied by a reproducible story that introduces one of the figures from the artwork and a reproducible journal that details the life and times of that character. Each section also includes background information and discussion questions to help students explore and appreciate the artwork, plus reproducible student pages and extension activities. For use with grades 4-8.
