TARGET: Renaissance extension activities

[William McLoughlin <wpmcloug@FREENET.COLUMBUS.OH.US>]

Hello everyone:

A 6th grade teacher asked me to pick your brains about tried-and-true
Renaissance extension activities which you or your teachers have used with
students.  She is focusing on the art and architecture of the period but
would like to incorporate as many other things as possible.

I know that this is a vast undertaking, since the Renaissance in Italy
alone would be a huge unit.  Having traveled a great deal in Europe, I'll
be showing kids slides of the Loire chateaux, Florence, Venice, papal
Rome, Shakespeare's England, etc.  If you can point us in another good
direction, we'd love to have your ideas.
