6th Grade Medieval Feast

Julia was Queen for the Day in her class and at school during the 6th Grade's Medieval Feast.
She looked AMAZING! In fact, it was quite impressive to see all the students and teachers in full costume celebrating the end of their Medieval Unit.

For students to be able to attend the feast, they had a major project they had to research and present to their peers. Julia decided to research a French medieval artist, Abot Suger, who renovated cathedrals and incorporated the use of stained glass windows into them. Suger believed that the use of light united the heavenly with the earthly and that the light was representative of Christ.
Together, Julia and Emily painted a piece of glass, replicating one of Suger's stained glass designs. 

I'm so proud of this girl! She is a hard worker and dedicated student. Plus, I think she is a pretty cute queen too!
