Jousting Tournaments



 
We will start watching A Knight's Tale tomorrow.

It is entertaining, but not completely accurate in its portrayal of life in the middle ages.
You will have 2 jobs to do as you watch the movie:

  • Identify at least 10 historical inaccuracies or anachronisms
  • Decide if William Thatcher is a chivalrous knight or not (according to the code of chivalry)
Learn more and play a joust game.

See "Mr. Donn's" website with various medieval topics.
