I assigned a chart for students to complete by Tuesday. They have to define and then give the immediate impact, explain who was directly affected (individuals and/or groups), and then explain the ripple effects on society of the following four things: Martin Luther, Printing Press, Heliocentric Theory, and Scientific Method.
In class, we read an excerpt from Sir Thomas More's Utopia. Maybe this will cut down on the bling these kids admire so much. After answering some questions, I showed them an episode of The Simpsons which sees the family attend a Renaissance Fair. Nice way to end the week, I believe.
