Language Arts 7

Today students began with a collective reading of the Greek myth "Theseus and The Minotaur".

We then highlighted all of the speech components of the story.  Students then decided on whether speech alone was necessary in order to get the full meaning of the story across to the audience.  Finally, students began investigating how a narrator could fill in the gaps.

Students were then put into groups and will be responsible for creating a shadow puppet presentation based on a Greek myth.

Students collectively began thinking about what would make a good shadow puppet presentation, and their ideas were written on the white board:


Students will continue working towards creation of a rubric for this project next class.
