A bit late for you.
But I think you will find most of these answers in past postings. They are questions that are asked quite often, and you do have a lot of them.

I am also in the 9th grade and doing a report on castles.-this might be late but here it goes-
1. the immportance if a great hall was-it served as the official center of the castle, where court was held,guests were entertained and the members of the household ate their meals.
2. Heating was accomplished through a open hearth, with some of the smoke escaping through a hole in the roof.Later they had fireplaces

Point 2 is not relay correct. Different kinds of stoves were in use from about 1200 onwards.
