Middle Ages


This has been our first term of our new curriculum, Tapestry of Grace. Our whole family has traveled the exciting journey together of learning all about the Middle Ages. Here are some crafts the girls made along the way, to help them understand different aspects of art and culture in the day.
 
Here we have a Byzantine icon...
 

a stainglass window...

a mosaic of Empress Theodora...


geometric art which started with the rise of Islam...



a coat of arms...

a castle...

garlands...


diorama depicting the people of the Middle Ages...



and lastly, illuminations.


The girls have thoroughly enjoyed this first term, and after our last week we will have our unit celebration - a medieval feast, where we all have to dress up in appropriate attire...should be fun!
