    a. Famous people of the period (Michelangelo, da Vinci, Shakespeare, Queen Elizabeth I).        
    b. Fantasy creatures (dragons, unicorns, fairies, trolls).
    c. Life during Medieval/Renaissance times (knights, peasants, nobility, castles).

    

3. The size of any entry must not exceed 22″ x 28″.
 

4. The student’s name, grade and school MUST appear on the BACK of the entry.
