There are so many versions of King Arthur and the Knights..... Are your activities based on specific stories and novels?

Hello!
I have many different versions of the stories, and tend to use different ones from year to year, depending on my class. The questions and activities in this package are designed to be used with almost any version of the stories. For example, some of the activities ask students to examine the code of chivalry, and compare the code to the actions of a character in the story. While a valuable activity, it is generic enough to be used with any of the King Arthur tales. The questions that relate to specific stories are also generic enough to be used with any version. This package is currently being used by several teachers in our school, who all use it with different versions. Hope this helps!

Hello!
All of the handouts in the King Arthur Package have detailed instructions. The unit is ready-to-go... all you have to do is make copies :). The stories, however, are not included.
