Medieval Weapons







We have been studying the middle ages. Today we finally got to the weapons that were used during that time period. Austin was surprised that other things beside swords. We made mini catapults that will later go in our miniature castles . So we spent all afternoon reading the very easy instructions that with both boys weren't very easy. After 2 hours we finally completed our catapults, to our amazment they worked. So now I have little paper balls throughout my house. We have enjoyed studying the middle ages and look forward to the next couple of weeks finishing up. We still have a castle,knight shields a family coat of arms and a grand finale of a feast. It should be fun and exciting.
