Dear students,
It promises to be a very elaborate lesson. No, we will not be building towers this time. I will introduce you to the Napoleonic Era today, but before we get to that, a few words about the Renaissance.
The representative of the Renaissance is Leonardo Da Vinci, an outstanding genius, painter, architect - our Steven is also imaginative and loves to draw... maybe he will still be human?
Da Vinci invented many interesting structures, including war machines. We should learn from him how to build strong towers! I hear he also designed a helicopter - let's hope it won't be used against us.
They have the best Croissants
On a recent school trip we went to Paris. We visited museums and learned about French history. But what we enjoyed most were the cafés where we ate delicious, legendary croissants - even Mikey indulged in his diet that day.
I was very impressed with the Eiffel Tower. Ehhh... I'd like to build towers like that when I grow up. Just think - such a tall watchtower would surely beat even those ridiculous Da Vinci helicopters!
I’m not afraid of your baguettes
The history lady said that the Napoleonic era was a time of many wars. The French state was headed by a brilliant - but very short in stature - strategist, Napoleon Bonaparte (He he...Barbara says the name is more suited to a cat than a great emperor).
A fearless commander, he brought peace to the state and introduced many changes, but his greatest successes were on the battlefield. His army was strong and invincible. Probably because he fed them with frogs and snails, as is common in France. I wonder if they used baguettes instead of swords?
The school trip was very successful and peaceful, but when we return to Napoleon's time, things are not going to be so colourful. So take a look at the building plans created by the Renaissance genius, as we could certainly use some new towers to defend Gervase! Today's lesson was a little different from the previous ones, but I hope you are ready for the next adventure. If you're not sure, test your skills now by playing the demo Lesson Learned.
See you in the next lesson!
