Classwork
Thursday and Friday were ACT Aspire testing days for Freshmen at PMSA. This meant that I only saw 1/2 of each of my classes on each day. In class we built off of our basic understanding of verbs and the difference between regular and irregular verbs. We spent time working to identify the correct form of a verb to use in about 20 different sentence and discussed how different forms of a verb are used. After spending a nice amount of time with our verbs, we shifted over to the Odyssey. As a class, we tried to create a working definition of the phrase 'superhuman strength' that we could use as we analyzed Odysseus's actions. Below is a wordle that reflects the notes I took from the discussions all 5 of my classes had while trying to define superhuman strength. Click here to view a copy of these notes. | ||||
