Was Life Getting Better or Worse in the Early Modern Period? - The Big Question!

Timeline Challenge
In this exercise students organise slips of information into appropriate categories, reduce them down to just 15, and use them to answer the question "Was Life Good or Bad in the Middle Ages?". They work in teams of two or three, and at various points during the exercise the teacher will test each team with questions from this picture quiz.
