The Spartans have just completed a persuasive editorial in their English classes. This went along with our thematic unit about gods and goddesses! The students wrote an editorial that selected the best god/goddess and the worst god/goddess. They had to defend the choices that they made.
Now that we are wrapping up the essays, we will begin learning about outlining. Outlining is a great technique to organize an essay or any writing assignment. It's also helpful with note taking, so this will be a skill that will definitely be useful to the Spartan students in the coming years!
