1. Religion- Religion change from the middle ages to the Renaissance by instead of everything revolving around the pope and what he said people could get the same worlds from the bible.
Towns/Cities- In the middle ages you either live in the castle or you lived on the farms, and in the Renaissance you live in you home/villa and you can go onto the streets of the city.
Peasants- In the middle age there were peasants but when the renaissance came there was like three main classes, lower class, middle class, higher class.
2. I think that the most important of all three of my groups is religion. I think that religion was the most important because if the bible hadn't of been made then i think people would still be going to the pope and not looking for the same words that the pope would speak in the bible. Now people could turn to a book for there problems and not to a person, they didn't have to go to the church to get advice.
3. Religion change from the middle ages to the Renaissance from having a pope to tell you what to do and what but now you can go to the bible for the same information. This was made possible because of the printing press. Now with the rise in bibles and people had to learn to read which lead to higher education in the people.
4. I think that Copernicus was a very important person and made a very important discovery for earth. Copernicus said that the sun is the center of the universe. This was important because this lead to so many more discoveries.
5. When i was six years old and we had just moved into our new house. My brother and me were swimming in the pool but i did not know how to swim so i stayed in the sallow end. When i was running around the pool with my dog my brother pushed me into the deep end of the pool. The idea of having a blank slate would almost make sense because of the fact i practice in the sallow end of the pool and then when my brother pushed my into the deep end i had that little bit of info (of how to swim) in me. So i knew how to swim.
