This comprehensive package brings the middle ages to life by covering key topics from lesson 10.5. For instance, students will explore how warfare technology changed in the 700s when mounted knights became the most important part of an army. Lessons explain how leather saddles and stirrups enabled knights to handle heavy weapons. Consequently, mounted knights became the most devastating weapon on the battlefield.

Additionally, the materials examine the chaotic landscape of western Europe by the 1000s. Feudal lords raised private armies of knights and rewarded them with land. This land provided the income needed for expensive armor and weapons. Furthermore, knights trained for combat through rigorous activities like hunting and wrestling.

By the 1100s, knights adhered to the code of chivalry. This complex set of ideals required knights to protect the weak and poor, serve their feudal lord, serve God, and honor their chosen lady. Students will also learn about the literature of chivalry, including epic poetry like The Song of Roland and the cultural impact of troubadours. Famous historical figures like Eleanor of Aquitaine and her son, Richard the Lionhearted, are also highlighted. Finally, the curriculum details the societal roles and status of noble and peasant women during the feudal era.
