What educators are saying

My students and I enjoyed this resource SO much! They have loved learning about The Black Death. This resource is not only engaging but fun for them to do!
This is a really great resource! My students loved it and were able to connect it in a relevant manner due to the covid pandemic.

Description

In this Black Death stations activity, students examine primary evidence from the 1348 plague pandemic that hit Europe to learn what the disease was like, where it came from, and how people reacted at the time. Several stations also force students to examine the plague from a modern lens to learn how modern science has taught us more and where outbreaks can still happen. This resource is a great way to connect medieval history to our lives today!

This Middle Ages lesson is included in the larger Middle Ages Unit Bundle located here!

A full key is included!

This resource includes a paper in-class version and a 1:1 Google compatible version to be used in conjunction with Google Classroom.

Highly-engaging and guaranteed to pique your students interest!
