February 17, 2016

Independent Reading Time: 15 minutes
Writer's Notebook: Vocabulary - Find a word from your book to add to the vocab section of your notebook. Share the sentence where the word is used, and write the appropriate definition for that word.

We spent about 15 minutes completing yesterday's Greek drama notes, comparing them to my notes to be sure we have the proper information (intro to Greek drama notes PDF on Classroom). Students shared their notes with me to be printed for future use. We also watched the first 5:30 of John Green's Crash Course Literature episode about Oedipus Rex. He gives even more insight into Greek drama.

Students received a packet of questions to complete as we read Oedipus Rex. The questions are optional; however, students may use them on any quizzes and tests. First period read the Prologue and Parados today (pages 3-12). Second and 4th periods read only the Prologue (pages 3-10). Those two classes will get caught up tomorrow.
