Renaissance+Research

In groups of between two and four students, you are going to research what it was like to live in England during the Renaissance. For the purpose of this assignment, you can use the decade from 1590-1599. What style clothing did the people wear if they were royalty? How did the commoners dress? What foods did they eat? How did they spend their days? What were the popular games or sports of the period? What did they do for entertainment?

After doing some research about life in England during this time, create a group presentation using Google Documents. You must include information about how people dressed, what they ate, how they spent their days, and how they were entertained. You need a minimum of seven slides, not counting the title slide and the reference slide.
