Students will launch the project by building a quick feudal pyramid model, testing how roles connect through land, protection, labor, and loyalty, and generating questions that will guide their later poster investigation.

Students will analyze how the feudal hierarchy functioned as a give-receive-depend system, refine a team claim from evidence, and create a labeled plan for a comparison poster that connects feudal roles to a modern community structure.

Students will exhibit their revised feudal pyramid and modern community comparison posters, explain how land, protection, labor, and loyalty moved through each system, respond to audience questions, and leave evidence-based sticky-note reflections during a gallery walk.
