4º - Challenge 14

It's time for research!

The book told us about the Russian Revolution... but it said nothing about how the tsar's family ended...

So your challenge is to investigate about the final days of this royal family, make a summary and tell something about two of the characters that most calls your attention...

2º - Challenge 14

Let's go with the new challenge:

Write a short comment (3–5 lines) answering this challenge: Why do you think transhumance was so important for La Mesta, and how do you think it changed life in medieval Castile?

Use at least one fact you learned about La Mesta in your answer.

To help you write your comment, you may think about:

• The movement of flocks between summer and winter pastures
• The importance of merino wool
• The privileges that kings gave to La Mesta
• How shepherds, farmers, and towns were affected
