Printing Press

Review: Frankish King that controlled Western Europe during the Middle Ages. Pope named him the new Holy Roman Emperor.
Charlemagne

Unfortunately, I have jury duty so the students will be working with a sub.  Students will begin class by trying to be a  medieval scribe.  Copying writing by hand is a difficult and time consuming process.  This will lead into learning about the invention of the printing press by Johann Gutenberg. 

Homework: paragraph comparing a modern invention to the printing press and its affect on mass communication.
