Annotated Castle Projects

Due Thursday, Sept. 18, 2014.

Draw either a Motte and Bailey castle or a 13th century castle.  You may trace.  You may do other kinds of artwork besides drawing, buy your final product must be something that can be hung on a wall.

You may draw all or part of a castle.

You may include a town or manor in your drawing.

Include 10 annotations.  (1-2 sentences each.)

  • six annotations must be about parts of a castle.  i.e. portcullis, drawbridge, arrow slit, etc.
  • four annotations must be about people.  One for each social class: monarch, nobles, knights, and peasants.
Annotations should contain lots of historical information.

Grades for this project will be based on historical content, written and visual, and on artistic effort.  High quality annotations include correct information that is the result of research and cite sources.

This is a 70% project.
