Michelle Roche's fourth-grade class at St. Raphael School celebrated its Medieval Festival this month. The students stepped back in time as they transformed themselves into kings and queens, lords and ladies, knights and serfs. After exploring all things Middle Ages, the class topped off their month of cross-curricular learning by hosting a feast fit for a king…or perchance a serf. The feast included food from the middle ages such as ham, chicken, pomegranates, apple and potatoes. Each student also designed their own shield with a personal motto and symbol.
