Famous Figures

Transitioning from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance, when western culture was reborn, we studied important figures such as Johann Guttenberg, Leonardo Da Vinci, and Christopher Columbus. We looked at how better science led to better technology, which led to better ships, and more exploration. Students had to pretend to be a significant Renaissance figure in front of the class and be interviewed. Students then had to guess whom each person was based on their contribution to society.
