Life in a medieval village

What am I learning? I am learning about Medieval Age

How does this work show my learning? By showing the link of the Film and the Medieval Age

What am I wondering as a result of this Learning? how Kara know what pudding is only rich people have the money of the sweet putting.

The peasants, including serfs, Freeman and villains, on a manor, lived close together in one or more villages. Their small, thatch-roofed, and one-roomed houses would be grouped about an open space, or on both sides of a single, narrow street. The only important buildings were the parish church, the parsonage, a mill, if a stream ran through the manor, and possibly a blacksmith's shop. The population of one of these villages often did not often exceed one hundred people. Most peasants wore plain clothing made from heavy wool to keep them warm during the winter. The wealthy, however, wore much nicer clothes made from fine wool, velvet, and even silk. Men generally wore a tunic, woollen stockings, breeches, and a cloak. Women wore a long skirt called a kirtle, an apron, woollen stockings, and a cloak. Peasants during the Middle Ages did not have a lot of variety in their food. They mostly ate bread and stew. The stew would have beans, dried peas, cabbage, and other vegetables sometimes flavoured with a bit of meat or bones. Other foods like meat, cheese, and eggs were usually saved for special occasions. Since they didn't have a way to keep their meat cold, they would eat it fresh. Leftover meat was smoked or salted to preserve it. The nobles ate a wider variety of food including meats and sweet puddings. In the Film, the village was the same as the historical. They have the stream and river running through the village. It the Film the foods was the same as the Middle Ages I sew the villages throwing cabbage and watermelon at kara. I wonder how Kara know what pudding is she only lives in the village? The villages house look the same as the Film the house in the film was one roomed, thatch-roofed and it small.

  1. Hi Nini, you have done a really good job on your research. I like how in depth you have gone and how you are questioning the accuracy of the film. You have a few spelling mistakes but other than that this was a great post. Keep it up and have a look at my blog if you have time :).
