    Our most recent project was studying the Middle Ages. The first thing we learned was the Feudal system, and how everyone must swear loyalty to the person above them.
    Then we learned about family crests, and how everything on them represented you and your family. Then we made one.
    Then we learned abou the different kinds of castles. Making the model castles was the best part.
    We then learned about Medieval weapons, and got to make catapults. We held a competition to see who had the best aim, and I tied for first place.
    Finally, we learned how rich merchants and the discovery of gunpowder collapsed the Feudal system and brought an end to the Middle Ages.
