Day 12 !

I apologize that I have been negligent the past few days!

Today we will talk about what you read on Monday (we have been MAP testing since...in case you were wondering). We will go over the answers to you worksheet, and then create a sequence map of how the Greeks believed the world was created. Actually, we already did that since I am posting this as you are sitting in my room!

Here is a picture of the sequence map that we created together! Use it to help you remember and to study!

Day 4!


Yay for day 4, and yay for Monday!

Today we will spend a little time talk more about where mythology came from. We will discuss and take notes about different theories that attempt to explain why people of various cultures created myths, and why some of these myths are similar across cultures.

When we have completed the notes, you will have some time to complete your next reading assignment! This is a good one...you get to meet all of the gods in this one! If you're gone, you're going to want to read pages 24-35 and fill out the Who's Who on Mount Olympus worksheet that you can get from me.

See you soon!

Wednesday, August 14...FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL!!

Welcome back to school! I hope you all had a great summer and that you are excited to be back to classes! I am so pumped to see you in class today!

Today, we'll just take care of some basic house keeping things. It's going to be super entertaining!

We'll talk about the class syllabus and expectations, our class blog, and then we'll spend some time getting to know each other!
