🏰 Castle Connections Pyramid

In small teams, students use index cards, paper shapes, markers, and arrows to build a quick pyramid labeled king, nobles, knights, and peasants. Teams add short notes showing who gave and received land, protection, labor, and loyalty, then share one claim about how a change at one level affects the others. The class closes by naming questions for investigation and previewing the team comparison poster that will connect the feudal pyramid to a modern community model.
