As you read you need to take Cornell notes: EQ is " What conditions can encourage the desire to reform".

Then answer the question below together or individually:

Martin Luther has always been a controversial figure. Catholics and Prodestants have told very different versions of the story of his life and work. What could be some disagreements that Catholics and Protestants have over the impact that Martin Luther had on Christian religion? Can you think of someone else who is controversial?

*Name the person and explain how his or her story might be told in two very different ways*

Leonardo De Vinchi Journal Page Project

Leonardo Da Vinci Worksheet
Historical Situation: Leonardo da Vinci kept a notebook where he wrote down ideas throughout the day as he thought them up. It included sketches of everything you can imagine and little notes to himself including his shopping lists! He wrote the book in a form of coded mirror-writing so people couldn't easily read his ideas. To make it even harder for them to steal his inventions da Vinci would often put a mistake in his diagrams on purpose.
Your Task: Create a page of da Vinci's notebook for a modern invention.
Instructions:
1. Choose a modern invention (anything that didn't exist during the Renaissance).
2. Sketch the item from 3 or more angles.
a. Does not have to be colored or perfect.
b. Must show key details.
c.  Include one fake detail that would make the invention less useful or not work at all.
3. Describe it in writing (backwards)
a.                Write at least 5 sentences describing the parts of your "invention". These should be spread all over the page.
b.                Each sentence should describe a different function or part that makes the invention work.
c.Write the sentences backwards!

4. Think/Pair/Share, pair off with partners and share with your partner your final product. Engage in a persuasive a pesuasive discussion to "sell"your invention, ...keep in mind it is the renaissance period when you are having this discussion

Examples of Da Vinci's Journal Pages are below:
