Vanderhoof, J / Middle Age/Medieval Times Viking Ship Project

4/2010 - The Global Studies Classes are studying The Middle Ages & Medieval Times. The Vikings greatly influenced Feudalism and the Development of Europe. The Vikings (Norsemen) built their ships to be able to attack and carry away the gold and riches they so often seeked. Students experimented with different possible designs that the Vikings might have used. We had a contest to see which ship design would hold the most weight in them before sinking. Attached are pictures of the different designed ships the class created.
