I am Geoffrey Chaucer.

I worked as a castellan () at Windsor Castle, but I wasn’t very good at it. I was much better at writing! Every Knight wrote a motto. A motto is a saying which has an important meaning. The Black was a Knight of the Garter. He was so proud to serve his King, that his motto was ‘I Serve’

Examples of good mottos: Loyalty Binds me Shame on he who looks evil on it Hope and Faith God and my right Comfort and Joy Now write a motto that is meaningful to you ………………………………….

My motto:

______My Motto: I am John Chandos, a chivalrous Knight of the Garter A Knight must be good He must learn CHIVALRY. This means he must be good in battle but also do the right thing

 Loyalty — A Knight must look after their friends and the King

 Honour — A Knight should do the right thing

 Charity — A Knight shares with those who are less fortunate

 Valour — A Knight fights bravely in battle

Below are examples of Knights who demonstrated Chivalry. Match the action to the word …

Honour St Martin gave his cloak to a beggar to keep him warm

Valour Sir William Marshall stood by his King when no one else did

Sir Geoffrey charged into the battle carrying his flag Charity King Edward took his opponent prisoner, but treated him well, with feasts and a fine room in the Castle Loyalty Knights would wear to protect themselves in battle. Can you find the different pieces of armour in the wordsearch?
