Greek Mythology Menu

This week, the 6th graders have been immersed in the world of Greek mythology.  They spent much of last week reading different myths.  This week, they are using their knowledge of Greek mythology to create their own project that they have chosen from a list of options.  These projects are called menus, because students get to make their own choices.  Students in 6th grade are showing their knowledge of myths by creating comic strips, writing journal entries, and performing interviews with gods and goddesses.   Later this week, we will learn about the Persian Empire and their interactions with ancient Greece.

Questions for your 6th grader:

• What do most Greek myths have in common?
• What menu item are you working on?
