= Mythology Roots and Vocabulary  = === This Wiki site will help you learn and engage with the vocabulary for our Greek Mythology Unit. A "Wiki" is a website that allows for easy editing and sharing. I choose who has access to this Wiki, and the users even have some editing abilities too. You can click through this Wiki just like you would on any other website, but the great part about a Wiki is that you can also comment and add to it. Perhaps you found a great website about the Greeks and wanted to share it with the class; this Wiki makes it so simple! You can edit the pages here and add the link by imbedding it, or you can just copy and paste the link onto the site for your fellow classmates to use. You can also comment on this Wiki at various places. Perhaps you are looking at some of the "Awesome English Sites" and you found one of the links there to be very helpful, you can write your comment directly on this Wiki near that helpful link. ===

Check out this [|Youtube video] to get an even better idea of what a Wiki is and how it works.

Here is the [|Wikipedia site] on Wiki's.

=== This site is designed to help you with your vocabulary assignment in our Greek Mythology Unit. Go to the "Vocabulary Assignment" page to view the assignment sheet and vocab word list for this assignment. This page also has some background on Greek Mythology to refresh your memories. The "Awesome English Sites" page has some excellent websites that may be helpful to you over your whole career as an English student and writer. This page also has a link to some extra roots, prefixes and suffixes pages. "The Writing Process" page outlines the steps taken when writing for any genre and finally, "The Opinion Page" has a recent article about literacy that I would like you to read and instructions for a short assignment. There are three extra assignments on this Wiki that require you to post to the discussion tab at the top of the page, make sure you do this! Any questions just ask me. ===
