8th Grade: Moors/Catholics Websites

Hey 8th graders:


Just in case you need them, here are the websites about the Moors:

http://hubpages.com/hub/Moors-in-Spain-A-Height-of-a-Muslim-Nation

(Remember you were supposed to take notes on the Muslim impacts on Education and other things, then rate the top 10 Impacts (and education had to be one of them) and explain why you rated them that way.)

And the Catholics:

http://www.faqs.org/childhood/Ch-Co/Convent-Schools-Cathedral-Schools.html

**For the first one, scroll down until you see Education. It ends with the map.

(Remember you were supposed to answer the questions •Why were the schools started •How were the school and the school day organized •What was studied •How did the schools change over time. Finally, you were supposed to evaluate the Medieval European education system with your current system of education, and say which was better and why)

Enjoy, e-mail with questions!
