Latin Culture Blogs

Recently, Mr. Revkin's classes spent time researching cultural topics related to the ancient Mediterranean world. Students then developed products that made creative use of that research and posted within their class blogs. The products are far-ranging, from poems and raps to reenactments, imagery, and more.

Take a few moments to browse through some of their work and leave comments. You can search by tags or scroll through the posts.

Sci-Fi Original Story Convention

Ms. Thoreson's science fiction class is thrilled to share original sci-fi stories, and will be displaying visual pieces associated with these stories next week in the library through mid-term exams. Hard copy excerpts of stories will be available to read in the library and entire stories are now posted online to read - for those of you looking for a break from long hours of studying, these stories might be the perfect antidote!

Please join our class in celebrating the joys of being a sci-fi geek.

Go to Ms. Thoreson's website for more information about "amazing science fiction" and to read the original stories:
