Exploring Morality in Literature: Activities and Presentations

In this engaging literary unit, students delve into the moral and ethical dimensions of characters in H.O.S. Activities include warm-up discussions on the most moral character, collaborative planning for presentations, and Socratic seminars to analyze key characters and themes. Absent students must complete written make-up homework to stay on track. As final projects are due soon, students are encouraged to present creatively, using various media. Our goal is to enhance understanding of literary analysis and develop lively presentation skills.
