HOMEWORK: Please make sure you have listened to the final 3 chapters of Percy Jackson, as we will have a Review Quiz on Monday. The quiz will include multiple choice and short answer questions based on the readings from Chapters 1 - 12.

Groups will be able to begin recording their Greek Myth Videos on Tuesday, if all of their work is done. REMINDER: please bring in your permission form and $$ for our field trip to the Movies next week. All forms and money need to be handed in my Wednesday, May 4th. |
