I observed Mrs. Ball’s 7th grade science class at Helen Tyson Middle School on Thursday November 5‚ 2015.

The Dark Ages In this paper‚ I will talk about how The Middle Ages‚ also known as the Dark Ages‚ was considered to be a time of death‚ disease and despair. Just as the name the “Dark Ages” advocates‚ this era of European history appeared to be bounded by gloom and desperateness. Unfortunately‚ most of the people only see this side of the Middle Ages when‚ in fact‚ the Middle Ages was a far more significant era.
