Feudalism - Middle Ages Project
Task:
Your task is to create your own feudal system with you in it!; you can be as creative as you want with this. Create the best or worst society or culture! Here is what you must do in order to complete this project:
1. Hierarchy Pyramid (30 pts)
Create a social class/status structure. (be creative on how to make this)
• Create some way of showing the way the feudal system is structured (can be like a hierarchy pyramid)
• Society structure must have at least 4 levels.
• Refer to the graphic on pg. 361 for ideas on how this should look
- You must describe the type of person or social class at each level (1 paragraph for each level)
- What is their role in your feudal system? What is their title? What do they do? How much power do they have? Be as descriptive as possible.
- Pyramid must be on poster board
2. System of Exchange (30 pts)
Create a system of exchange between each social class – what does each group of people exchange with one another.
• On poster board, create some way of showing what each social class exchanges with one another. (hint: refer to the graphic organizer with the arrows for ideas)
- Write 1 page explaining your system of exchange
- Describe what each person
3. Comparison and Analysis (40 pts)
Compare your feudal system to the feudal system in the middle ages.
• What is similar about the two systems?
• What is different?
• Is your feudal system better for society than the one in the middle ages? Why do you think this?
- Write at least 1 page
There is essentially two parts to this project: a visual part and a written part that explains your visual.
You will have one class period to work on this
You must hand this in before Thanksgiving Break!
