The Lottery is a great short story that is filled with examples of various literary elements and devices. I always feel like the students get a lot from this text as much as they enjoy reading it.

Ancient Egyptian Mythology Unit
I teach a World Mythology course in which I have about a week or so for each pantheon, so I really cut to the nitty gritty of the beliefs and ideals. This is in no way an exhaustive study of more than 3,000 years of Ancient Egyptian history, culture, or even their mythology or belief systems. This barely scratches the surface, but this gets your students interacting with a culture outside their own, learning the ins and outs of other’s belief systems.

Importance of learning English language arts
English language arts (ELA) concepts — reading, writing, listening, and speaking — empower students to become effective communicators, critical thinkers, and lifelong learners. They are the foundation for all other types of learning as students must rely on ELA skills to master content from other subject areas and communicate what they’ve learned.
Strong reading skills can help students make sense of written content, and gather information for further analysis. Writing skills can help students articulate their ideas, construct arguments, and synthesize information. And speaking and listening skills empower students to clearly present their ideas, participate in group discussions, and collaborate with their classmates. This is why teaching English language arts is critically important for student’s success in school and beyond.
Benefits of learning English language arts
Learning English language arts offers many benefits to students both in school and beyond. It helps students:
