My Project

My students are a group of energetic, curious sixth graders studying Ancient Civilizations. Part of that is learning about ancient religions, myths, and legends. We study Greek, Egyptian, and Roman mythology during our units on those cultures.

These books by Rick Riordan and other authors will help bring these myths and legends to life.

Students will have a way to connect history with literature in a fun and engaging way. We plan to add an independent book study to the course. Students will be able to read the books and complete independent assignments as part of a personalized learning choice board.
