Geography, Monsters, and Drawings - The Week in Review

Good morning from Maine where the sun is rising and it's a brisk 29F as I sip my dark roast coffee. It was a busy week here my little part of the world. We had two birthdays in my house, we all fought off little colds, and I announced a new course that I'm super excited about hosting in November

This weekend I have hours of leaf blowing and raking ahead of me. But I'll be sure to make time for riding bikes with my kids and taking our dogs for some walks in the woods. This is the best time of year to explore the Maine woods. I hope that you have an equally fun weekend ahead of you.

TED-Ed Lessons With a Halloween Theme

Halloween is a little more than a week away. It is during the next week that a lot of students will be introduced to the work of Edgar Allan Poe. A TED-Ed lesson examines what made Poe's macabre works timeless classics. In Why Should You Read Edgar Allan Poe? students can learn about Poe's guiding principles for writing, the recurring themes of his work, and the personal factors in his life that contributed to his writing. Find the complete lesson here or watch the video as embedded below.

 


If your students are going to do some Halloween-themed writing, TED-Ed has a lesson titled How to Make Your Writing Suspenseful that could be helpful to them. The lesson is part of a larger TED-Ed playlist called The Writer's Workshop

Vampires: Folklore, Fantasy, and Fact is a TED-Ed lesson that explores the myth of vampires.
