Life in the 7th grade wing

     My students and I are are working on a Viking unit.  We researched the Viking life, explorations, burials, economy, technology, etc.  It has been so much fun!!!!!  They made Viking longships out of egg cartons.  My kiddos turned in some amazing longships.  I can't wait to post pictures.  Next week, we are making live Viking radio/tv commercials with costumes and props.  The student groups are present their commercials to an "advertising agency."  The agency will follow a rubric to rate the commercials.  We are learning powers of persuasion and including features of the Viking life.  I can't wait!
