The Greeks

As we studied The Greeks as a unit in Amplify, we began with the assessment essay prompt and collected meaningful context words along the way to help students understand the prompt: "Are humans destroyed by their pride?" where we took a positive angle on how pride is both positive and supports our esteem, and possibly detrimental in excess, as many of the gods and goddesses of Greek Mythology discover. This picture was early in the unit which includes Prometheus, Odysseus, and Arachne as focal figures.
