ELA

In ELA, we started a new unit that will be focusing on having the students research a Greek god in order to create a demigod with that character as their parent. Then they will work to insert their new character into a scene of The Lightning Thief. We have completed the research and character creations. We are now working on choosing and rewriting the scene that their character will be inserted into. Next week we start out the week by continuing to plan out the scene, and then have two days to draft their narrative. We will finish the week by watching the Percy Jackson Movie!
