World History Stations Activity - Intro to the Middle Ages *Print & Go Prep*

Looking for a fun way to get your students talking, moving, and collaborating? Look no further!

This Station Activity will get your students moving while introducing them to the content that will learn throughout the unit.

How the Lesson Works:

★ This lesson is made up of six stations that will allow your students to discuss the following topics:

Station 1 - Life and Death in the Middle Ages! (The Death Rate in the Middle Ages)
Station 2 - The Black Plague (Article and Review Questions)
Station 3 - Oh Snap! (Important Figures from the Middle Ages)
Station 4 - A Day in the Life (Daily Life During the Middle Ages)
Station 5 - The Crusades (Video Clip w/Journal Entry)
Station 6 - Two Truths and a Lie (Vocabulary Review)
★ This activity can be completed by individual students or by teams of students with one answer sheet.

★ The stations are designed to be completed in ten minutes. The entire lesson will take sixty minutes to complete.

★ Many of the stations involve writing opinions rather than facts, so there is not always necessarily a correct or incorrect answer. I’ve included a sample answer sheet to give you an idea of how students can respond to these prompts.

★ This purchase includes the six station cards, supplemental files for three of the stations, a student answer sheet, a sample completed answer sheet, a Notes for Teachers document explaining each station with tips and tricks.

★ All files come in a PDF format.

Required Materials:

★ Two of the stations require devices for watching videos on YouTube and listening to a song saved on Google Drive. Any device with an internet connection will work.
