Weekly Update #6
February 10, 2023
Room 311, ELA and Social Studies
ELA
We are diligently following the adventures of our favorite 12 year old demigod, Perseus Jackson, and this week, we were in chapters 12 and 13. Medusa, Chimera and Echidna were part of our story as well.
Students analyzed different approaches to the same character in two different literary forms, the story and a poem, while at the same time working through the writing process of creating a strong argumentative essay.
Next week, we will continue with our novel study and go over possible weaknesses in the writing of an argumentative essay, before taking our district mandated writing assessment.
Social Studies
After learning about the very short but impressive career of Alexander The Great, and looking at the tradition of Hellenism, we will shift our focus to one of the greatest civilizations this world has ever seen- Rome!
