What's Going On? Your task is to do some research to understand the background of the medieval era so you can better understand the people and settings in the stories we are about to read. Each group must create a learning station for other students to be able to complete a take-away activity of information. Period 4 Period 8/9

Your learning station must include the following:
 * A Prezi that includes text and links to websites and video.
 * A scavenger hunt worksheet to be copied and filled in by the students at the learning station.
 * A scavenger hunt answer key for the teacher.
