Punishments

= ​ 1. Questions (I wonder...?)= - I wonder how often a person would be put in the town jail? - I wonder if the peasants ever tried to leave (escape) the jail? //**
 * // - I wonder if there were punishments for someone doing something wrong?

= = =2. Inferences (I think that...because....)= - I think that people would be put in a jail once and realize what they did wrong and never do it again. - I think that the people did try to escape to go to their families but they probably didn't get out.// **
 * //- I think that there could possibly be a punishment for someone doing something wrong involving the King or Queen.

= = =4. Summary= //**There were many different crimes and punishments in the Middle Ages. One thing I learned was that many people in the Middle Ages caused crimes. People would often try to steal money from eachother or even try and harm someone. This lead up to the punishments which was the second thing I learned. I found out that if someone does anything bad they themselves could get a serious injury back. Depending on what they did, they could be chained, whipped, or even boiled to death. The third thing I learned was about the stocks. I found that they were very cold, uncomfortable, and very crowded which was a good place for the bad people. Also, if they were lucky, a family member would bring them food so they didn't starve to death. Imagine what it would be like to be falsly accused and be put in one of those! All in all, I found out what the punishments were like in the Middle Ages which makes me appreciate what modern life is like today.**//
