Content Objective: Students will read “The World on the Turtle’s Back” in order to identify causes and effects in a creation myth.

​

Warm-up: To Each His Own: Why do you think that different groups of people felt the need to come up with their own creation stories and why even in the present has there not been a single creation story that everyone can agree upon?

Word of the day: ambivalent - lacking conviction (strong believe) because of mixed feelings.

My example: In the movie Gladiator, Emperor Commodus is ambivalent about giving the order to kill Maximus in the Coliseum.
