Reminder: What is a Myth? Angle Games and sketching, What's Going On in This Picture?

Writing:  Myths

This is a reminder of what a Myth is.  It is not your typical short story.  Here are a couple of videos to help with a re-explanation of it, in case you forgot.
Here is a sample:


Mathematics:  Angles

To supplement our current lessons on angle relationships, there are a number of games posted on GC that will help you.


UPDATE:  I was having some difficulty uploading some items to GC which relate to angle relationships.  For now, I will post the 2 images here and post them when GC is working properly.

The drawing I did, which I want you to do.  You will be given a handout to help you with remembering where the angles relationships are located.

As Ms. Carol pointed out:  There are 2 grids on the protractor.  With the angles highlighted in orange, you can see that one 1s 130 degree Obtuse one and one is a 50 degree Acute one; together they make a 180 degree angle!


Reading:  New York Times'What's Going On in This Picture?


a) Since we have not done this in a while, I thought we might use this image as a group warmup:

b) Here is the one we will do today.  It is due today.  You must show it to me so I can record who has completed it.  Lates are not permitted for this short exercise.
