6. Review / Closure: Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, and Day 4
This is a multiple day lesson. At the end of each of the first three days I will make
notation of students’ progress. I will ask the class if they are experiencing any issues or
if they need any clarification. On Day 4 I will lead the students in an informal
discussion where they can tell me some of the stuff they enjoyed about this lesson what
they didn’t. I will set up on Class Dojo some questions I want students to answer such
as Did they feel they gained a better understanding “celebrities” in the Roman Empire?
Do they feel more confident in their writing ability; did they feel comfortable
collaboratively sharing with their partners?
