1 Field Course : Level 2 Introductory note for the teachers This field course takes place outdoors, inside the outer bailey of the Castle Guillaume-le-Conquérant of Falaise. This course is organized so that each pupil can individually comprehend the way a medieval castle functions through direct observation. The average duration for this course is an hour. It is supervised by the teachers or by accompanying adults and is introductory to the guided tour inside the keeps, which is led by the castle s guide. There are three kinds of material: - a map of the castle - illustrated sheets - a lexicon So as to ease the learning process and the movements inside the castle, it is advised to split the classes into two or three groups, according to the number of pupils. For each group, the sheets are to be used in different orders: - Group A (sheets 1, 2, 3, 4 + attack sheet) - Group B (sheets 4, 3, 2, 1 + attack sheet) - Group C (sheets 3, 4, 1, 2 + attack sheet)

Moat at: a large ditch filled with water. Outer bailey: a part of the castle that does not contain the keeps, but that is fortified nevertheless (you are located at this moment inside the lower bailey of the castle of Falaise). Inside this bailey, there were usually the houses of the castle s inhabitants (the lord and his family, the soldiers of the garrison, some servants...), a chapel, as well as the outhouses (workshops, stables, barns...). The population living around could take refuge inside the bailey.
