I will be returning to school on Monday, November 7, 2016. Thank you for your patience with my absence and for behaving well for your substitute teacher and for the other 6th grade teachers in my absence.
Here are all of the things I'd promised to post on this blog before last weekend happened.
First! Click on the hyperlink for online access to THE LIGHTNING THIEF novel. It should be the same page numbers as the copies we use in class. You may use this for any of the work that will be due next week.
Here is a link to the CHAPTER COMPREHENSION QUESTIONS you have used over the past few days in my absence.
Here are the notes I gave in class: "Do Percy's Experiences In The Lightning Thief Align With The Hero's Journey?"

“The landscape was dotted with buildings that looked like ancient Greek architecture—an open-air pavilion, an amphitheater, a circular arena—except that they all looked brand new, their white marble columns sparkling in the sun. In a nearby sandpit, a dozen high school- age kids and satyrs played volleyball.” (page 62)
