Today kicked off Spirit Week for Millington’s Homecoming. We celebrated today with “Old Timers Day” where everyone dressed like a senior citizen. We had some really creative students! They brought canes and walkers, drew on wrinkles, sprayed their hair gray, and wore all sorts of crazy outfits. So much fun! I can’t wait to see what everyone wears for “Around the World Day” tomorrow!
Teaching about ancient religions today was a success! I think that the students enjoyed the lesson, they had some great questions. I can’t wait to see their drawings and read their papers about their Egyptian tombs. Check out yesterday’s blog to see the PowerPoint, warm up, and assignment that we did today.
Tomorrow we will continue the history of religions unit by mapping out different religions. We will use this interactive map: http://www.mapsofwar.com/ind/history-of-religion.html to discuss where and how religions started and spread. Students will practice finding different locations using latitude and longitude as they plot important religious centers.
