Ms. Oakley's English One Class Project on "The Cask of Amontillado"

Ms. Oakley’s English One class just completed a unit on “The Cask of Amontillado,” a short story written by Edgar Allen Poe. They began with an inquiry PowerPoint project on the history of Italian Carnival, including food, costumes, masks, then and now, and a study of the catacombs of Italy. Students made their own carnival masks. After reading the short story, groups completed mock police investigations using text evidence. They used this information and a little creativity to write news story scripts. Groups then filmed their “Breaking News” reports. The unit culminated with students wearing their masks and enjoying the Italian carnival treats they prepared.
