Today we finished any of The Miracle Worker video; primarily in first period. I reminded students how to answer their short answer questions for the test tomorrow and we discussed our Odyssey project.
Students have a handout and a mythology list to assist them as we begin preparing for our reading of The Odyssey.
For the next 13 days, students will reserach a predetermined list of myths to help them understand the places, people, and events that are a part of The Odyssey. We will begin our background reading on Oct 13, so everyone has to bring his book to class,
I will collect and check notecards on Friday, Oct 8, Tuesday, Oct 12, Friday, Oct 15, and all myth cards will be finished on Oct 18 for a final test grade. Each of these checks will count as a prep grade; however all 22 completed cards will count as a test grade.
After we finish the cards, students will have a week to work on a visual that illustrates one of their favorite myths from our list.
