Update Sept. 10

Writing Portfolio
We continued our discussion of the purposes of punctuation. We practiced applying our understanding of colons, semicolons, and dashes in our business letters and emails.

Core
Bellwrite: Is it ever OK to lie?

We began our exploration of the moral relativism of Machiavelli by discussing this bellwrite. We then read together from the History readings packet Renaissance and Reformation Topic 2: Humanism in Politics (from Machiavelli's The Prince.)

Students also shared their poetry and received feedback from the class.

Homework
Finish studying Topic 2 and answer all the questions.
