On April 16, 2013, students focused on reading increasingly challenging texts, specifically Sophocles' "Antigone." The day's activities included a "True or False" bell ringer examining King Creon's beliefs about loyalty to family versus the law. Discussion points included Creon's stance on punishment for lawbreakers and the guard's role in the story. Students watched a video clip to enhance understanding and completed an exit slip by selecting a favorite character, providing descriptive words to capture their essence.
