Journal Topic
People are always looking for new ways to sell things. What’s the worst or most annoying commercial you’ve ever seen? What is the best or funniest? Quick Write. This is a one-minute timed writing. The idea is to get as many words
as possible onto the paper. Don’t worry about spelling or punctuation. You will get more words if you write in complete thoughts rather than making a list. The teacher will give you the subject. Once you hear it, you will have exactly one minute. You CANNOT STOP writing for any reason. If you can’t think of anything, write “I have nothing to say” until you think of something, but you can’t write “I have nothing to say” the entire time. The purpose of this is to become a more fluent writer.
Teachers: Make your first subject something simple, like “the color blue.” Then try something related to the chapter, such as “Los Angeles” or “California.” Students write whatever they can think of about that subject. At the end, have them count their words and put the number at the top. Compare with a show of hands. Who got the most words? Do one or two of these a day and you will be amazed how much faster the kids get at writing by the end of the year.

Discussion Question
The Lotus Casino in Las Vegas is a modern-day version of the Land of the Lotus Eaters, which Odysseus visited on his way back from Troy. Read the original version from The Odyssey. How do the two accounts differ? Is the danger Odysseus faced similar to the danger faced by Percy and his friends? Is society today more dominated by “Lotus Eaters”?
