Every year, our sixth grade does an interdisciplinary unit of study based on the social studies curriculum. Specifically the Middle Ages.
In English class, we do a research project. Our students each researched a person who lived from 500-1500 A.D.
Here are a couple highlights:
Student definition of concubine: it's like a wife but without legal or social status. At least she left out the fact that it's more like a mistress. Some students would probably have likened it to a hooker.

And these are some of the many reasons, as much as I bitch and complain sometimes, that I LOVE my job! These kids always make me laugh.
With that said, 12.5 more school days left in this year!!!

I love them so much, too! Last year, I had the hub read this project aloud as I graded. Waaaay too many laughs were had!
@Shannon
You know, they do make me laugh every day. Whether it be something outright funny (or inappropriate and I shouldn't be laughing) or something ridiculously stupid!
@Bobby
I like the idea of posting more bad handwriting. "Name that word!" Look for it in the future!
