Scoring Rubrics
15
Scoring Notes:
Class structure pyramid should show serfs, knights (vassals), and nobles (lords). It should represent a three-tiered triangle
with the majority of the population (serfs) on the bottom with knights in the middle and lords in the top layer. Students
should correctly explain the important roles and responsibilities of each.
Feudalism affected all classes of people in medieval Europe. The lords were the owners of large amounts of land. They
looked for protection and loyalty from the knights. Lords would grant land to knights, or vassals, in exchange for military
protection and other services. Any peasants, or serfs, who lived on the land were part of the lord's grant. They raised crops
to support the vassal, and in return they also received protection in times of trouble.
