and then subsequently create a blog entrance about what they think
it would be like to be a stagehand during that period. |

Students should finish their blog piece if they have not already.
They should also choose a Greek mask to research at home. They should
create a project of their choice to teach the class about said mask. |

I will provide hard copies of notes to students who need them, and
assign a mask if they cannot find one. |

I will ask questions throughout the note taking session to judge
attention span and clarity. I will also monitor students as they are
on the computer to keep them on task. |

of key terms from the notes. Students must find he word first, then
find it in the puzzle. |
