Ramparts | Fortified Structures

L.I: To learn about earthwork fortifications and examples in history.
This week for inquiry we had to choose a technology to focus on that was used in history. Either a Hillfort, Ramport or a Trench. First we played a battle game in groups of four people that two could be defenders and the other two were the invaders. The defending team had to protect the treasure and the invades had to try to steal it. Once they have, they had won. This game was played with paper that had a template of squares on it and a few counters. I played this with Farzana, Nicole, and Sakina. Then in these same groups we had to choose a technology from hillfort, ramport, or a trench and write about it on a google presentation. In the end, that technology would be an addition used in our game. We chose to do a Ramport. We had to have 5 slides and each person in the group would have to say something when we finally present the finished presentation infront of the groups. In the presentation we had to includ info for what our technology is, and two historical examples and the name of the location and also when it was used.
