The Renaissance - 2023

In 8 SEAL Humanities, the class have been researching, reporting and teaching each other about different elements of the Renaissance period. Working in groups of 3 or 4, students covered the topics of the origins and spread of the Renaissance; political and economic features; everyday life; scientific revolution; art; the role of the church, the Reformation and Counter-Reformation; and the legacies of the Renaissance, including the Enlightenment. In the presentation of the information, many groups were brilliant in their creativity and engagement of the audience using humour, costumes, quizzes, and prizes. 

 

The class will now move onto learning about the making of the modern world and their place within it.
