Classical Age thinkers go to Starbucks

Tonight you will start working on a project that will be due on Friday, October 19th.  In groups, you are to imagine what would happen if the philosophers of the Classical Age were to gather in a Starbucks and talk with each other. Your group will compose a dialog of that interaction in a Google Document.  I will give you the prompt.

To aid you in this endeavor, there is a reading linked up here, that provides an over-view of the philosophers and their viewpoints.

More detailed instructions are linked up here

The rubric I will be using to come to a grade is linked up here.  Please note that the standards for a 4 are to exceed my expectations...

Your first step is to share a google doc with everyone in the group and with me. Please do that tonight and read over your section of the reading to be sure you know what you are writing about. You will have some time on Thursday to work as a group, but you won't have the full period to do so.

Due to the PSATs we will not meet tomorrow; if you are not taking the test you will have a study hall during class.
