100 Years War

I have to apologize, I thought this was posted... but it seems to have disappeared....so let's try this again!

Daily Objectives:

• Journal click here!
• MME and Notes
• Movie Time: 
• Shooting a longbow
• Henry V's Band of Brothers Speech (Shakespeare)
• Battle of Agincourt music video
• IF YOU WERE GONE:
• Brief overview
• Agincourt
• Left Side: Picture Frame of Henry V (click here for Google Doc you can print - only need one half)

For the MME: click here to go to Google Docs.

Main Idea:  The Hundred Years War led to the extinction of knights because of the longbow. England and France became strong, unified nations.

WORDS WORTH KNOWING
Longbow:  a weapon that led to the extinction of knights. Deadly at long range, easier training, and less expensive.
 Battle of Crecy (France):  British longbow men defeat heavily-armored French knights.
Battle of Agincourt (France):  British victory with longbows. Famous, bloody battle fought by Henry V.
Nationalism: love and pride in one’s country

Causes
• French King dies without heir and English king lays claim.
• England and France want to increase trade.
• England wants a continental empire.

Outcomes:
• Feudalism, medieval knights become obsolete.
• Along with Schism and plague, 100 years war brings end to the Middle Ages.

Another Schism?!

Students - I am out of the classroom today, but Mr. Morris will be teaching the material. If you are gone, as I know many are, please take copy of the notes, click the link for the left side activity and watch the videos down at the bottom of the page. Happy Spring Break, if I don't see you Friday!

JOURNAL: Click here for journal!

MAIN IDEAS AND WWK:

Main Idea:  The Catholic church lost power in the 1300s after being challenged by kings. The Church split for 39 years and never regained its former power afterwards.

Schism--split due to difference of beliefs

Pope Boniface--commands French king Philip IV to stop naming his own bishops (lay investiture)

Papal Bull--an order from the Pope that must be obeyed

What happens:

Philip arrests and imprisons Boniface, who dies

Philip names new pope and moves the church to Avignon, France.

Another pope is selected in Rome.  There are now two popes.

1414:  Council of Constance:  All three popes fired and a new one is named.

New men disagree with Church:

John Wycliffe--Englishman.  Believes humans only need Bible to get to heaven. Translates the Bible into the English vernacular.

John Huss--Czech priest who agrees with Wycliffe.  He is burned at the stake for heresy.

Left side:

Please print the following foldable on one sheet of paper (both sides are used) OR print into two and paste into notebook in an alternative way. Follow the directions and color the map.

In order to get the blog to load faster, I am posting MME's a bit differently - 

CLICK HERE FOR MME.

Causes of the Crusades: 

1.  Holy Land controlled by Muslims and the worry that Muslims would not let Christians make pilgrimages to the Holy Land

2. Constantinople (Eastern Roman Empire) asks west for help against Muslims.

3.  Troublesome knights in Europe threatening the people and the church.  Sending on a crusade would get rid of them.

4. Landless younger sons.  Younger sons could not inherit land.  This way they could seek their fortune in the holy land.

5. Adventure

6. Forgiveness of sins

7.  Merchants wanting wealth

Middle Ages Map 1:
Use the following map as a guide for color and how to outline the various barbarian kingdoms. There are some structures required that aren't on this map and so in class we used our textbook. You can google another map that works best for you or use the second map below.

A blank map is posted below. You can save the image and print it full size. The instructions are:

We will have time to work on these in class Monday as I do notebook checks. Maps will be due Monday at the end of class.
