This term Team JF have worked incredibly hard exploring the topic 'castles'. We started off at the very beginning to gain an understanding of why castles were built and who was responsible for this! From this, we explored the first Motte and Bailey castles and their features. Then we moved into the newly designed Stone Keep castles. We discussed the differences between the two, why they chose to change the materials they were built from and features of both. As our learning continued and we became experts at castle features, we moved into the roles of castle life. Here we spoke of the hierarchy in those times and how some of the roles were more privileged than others with better conditions! Alongside this, we explored the role of the knights and discovered their responsibilities, armour and how they became important! Finally, we designed and created our own model castles, thinking carefully about the features to include!
