Imagine the challenge of trying to find your way home both physically and metaphorically? Sometimes, we view the world around us as being the cause of us not getting what we want. Like Odysseus, we must face our own challenges and overcome them so that we may return "home" whether that is a place or a feeling.
As we read "The Odyssey" we'll see specific vocabulary throughout part one; so with that being said and in case you lost your handout--here it is again Odyssey Vocabulary Part One. You will have a vocabulary quiz on Friday and that is when the vocabulary handout is due. You can find "The Odyssey" here--just scroll all the way down to where it says EPIC. So far we have read pages one, two, three and part of page four (we stopped at the Witch Circe).
Remember: A myth is just a traditional story that explains a belief, ritual or mysterious phenomenon. Also, never eat a Lotus petal, you'll never want to phone home again.
Welcome to Mrs. Ordway's Blog! Here you will find digital copies of most things that I've handed out in class or links that will make your life easier...no really...at least I hope. Take a look around, hopefully you will find what you're searching for.
