[SOLVED] Coat of Arms worksheet

I’m working on a English question and need guidance to help me study.

Part 1: Answer the following questions. Include the URL where you got the information from and make sure you paraphrase.

What does the lion represent? Why would the rulers of England include so many of them on the Coat of Arms?

What does the fleur-de-lis represent? Why is it featured on the Coat of Arms of British rulers?

What does the unicorn represent? Why would the rulers of England choose a unicorn to support their shield?

The Coat of Arms includes two phrases, “Blessed are the peacemakers” and “Shame to him who evil thinks.” Choose one of these phrases and explain why a ruler might want it included in a coat of arms.

Research one of the colors featured in the Coat of Arms. Based on what the color represents, explain why it would be used in a royal coat of arms.

Part 2: Create a shield of your own based on your values and lifestyle:

Incorporate what you have learned about heraldic colors and symbols to design your shield.

You can give it a modern twist by including symbols that represent your current interests (a golden eagle listening to an iPod, for example).

You can use any program you’d like to create your shield, including:

design software on your computer

web 2.0 tools

MS Paint

You may draw your shield on paper and attach a photo of it

Part 3: Write a paragraph of at least five sentences (75-100 words) explaining how all of the elements included (shape, color, and symbols) are representative of your life and your values. Your paragraph should include proper grammar, punctuation, and other language conventions.
