Rye Lake Middle-High students share their learning on figures of Medieval history
Rye Lake High School students staged a Renaissance Exhibit of presentations on great figures of the period, from Shakespeare and Michelangelo to Raphael.
The event follows a visit earlier this spring to the Medieval Times Dinner Theater in New Jersey in late April. There they witnessed reenactments of medieval-style games, sword-fighting, and jousting. The Renaissance Exhibit required students to research an artist or writer from the period and produce a presentation based in Google Slides and an art piece. Their research ranged from samples of great works and biographical information about the figure to details about their impact on the world at the time.
Visitors perused the tri-fold displays arranged in the school’s main conference room, allowing students to share information and answer questions about their research.
