Today I had the chance to step out of The Library and tag along with the grade 4s on their field trip to Medieval Times. For a moment, we stepped back in time to the Middle Ages to watch Knights joust and sword fight. We feasted at the Queen’s feast. And we learned about chivalry (which interestingly aligns with IB characteristics) and the importance of compassion (open-minded), courage (risk-takers), respect (principled), charity (caring), and honesty (communicators).
The Middles Ages were an interesting era in history and we have some interesting books in The Library all about the Middle Ages. We have books about knights and castles, Lords & Ladies, and even the worst children’s jobs! You can find the non-fiction Medieval books in the 940s.
