Go to http://edsitement.neh.gov/printable_lesson_plan.asp?id=450#LESSON1
and http://www.lib.rochester.edu/camelot/FAQ-Arthur.htm [FAQ] and http://www.lib.rochester.edu/camelot/grlmenu.htm [The Holy Grail] to answer the following questions:
- Who was King Arthur? What was the time frame in which he supposedly lived? What aspects of his existence are real, do you think, and which are legend? How did Arthur become king? Is there any historical evidence that he existed? Do you think he was a real person? Why or why not? What is the Round Table? What does the Round Table have to do with the Holy Grail? What is chivalry? What were the ideals of the Knights of the Round Table? What are different concepts of the Holy Grail that people have help through the ages? Who is Guinevere? Who is Merlin? Find a poem about the Holy Grail. Read it. Put it on your page of the wiki. Summarize it. Find a painting of the Holy Grail (scroll down on http://www.lib.rochester.edu/camelot/grlmenu.htm to the bottom). Tell us who painted it and when. Comment on the painting. Don't forget to list the URL where you found it. What else have you found that's interesting?
