Middle Ages Mini-Project: 40 possible points

Most baseball players have trading cards. The front of their cards tells you their name and shows a picture of them swinging the bat, catching a ball, or throwing a pitch. The back of the card gives you their baseball statistics—how many home runs they have hit, what their hitting percentage is, how tall they are, etc.

Since this is World History and not baseball, your trading cards will be about people in the feudal system of the Middle Ages. You can find out more information about these groups of people in Chapter 19 Lesson 2 Pages 1-5 of your textbook.

Here are the steps to follow:

1. Get a piece of plain white paper. Quarter your paper by folding it in half, then in half again. You will make four different trading cards, but you will not cut them.

2. Label each trading card on the front with the name of the title of the group you are illustrating. Here are the four groups you will be making trading cards for:

• Kings and Queens

• Nobles

• Knights and Vassals

• Peasants and Serfs

3. Draw an illustration on the front of the card and be sure to color it and make it look creative! Do the best job that you can do!

4. On the back of the cards, give the group’s “stats”. This part can be neatly handwritten or typed. It is not necessary to write full paragraphs, you can use bullet points instead. Include the following categories and information:

• description of their duties, responsibilities, and obligations;

• description of their place in society;

• include anything else you think is important to know about the group

5. Read the section to find out information; don’t just use the chart in the textbook. Feel free to use the Internet to help you find extra information, but be careful to use only reliable sites (remember, not everything written on the internet is true!).
