1 Pre-course Reading English-1 9 th Grade The Odyssey Over the summer break you will read The Odyssey, research a Greek God then write a short research paper about the God you choose, create a poster about the same Greek God you chose to research (the poster will be presented in class), plot the route of Odysseus on a map, and use selective underlining in the text to find evidence of the character of Odysseus. Then you will use the evidence found of his character to write a short Essay. The Odyssey is an exciting tale of Odysseus journey back home to Ithica after fighting in the Trojan War. He faces many perils and delays as he takes 10 years to reach his home. The story is full of adventure and medaling by the Greek Gods. I hope you enjoy it. All assignments are due the first week of the 2015/2016 school year. They will be graded and we will use the book the first few weeks of class so, bring it with you to school in the fall. Have a great summer and see you in August. If you have questions or need help feel free to contact me through my school account jonestr@bay.k12.fl.us. Mrs. Jones English 1
2 Before reading: Write a short essay (150 words) that answers the essential question below. What does it take to be a hero and can anyone be a hero? As You Read Assignments 1. As you read underline short passages that can be used as evidence of the character of Odysseus. Create a journal using the two column note strategy. Write down the passage and explain what it shows you about the character of Odysseus. (One journal entry per chapter 24 total) 2. As you read mark the route of Odysseus journey home on the map provided. Research 1.

Be sure to use a minimum of 3 reliable resources (Wikipedia is not an acceptable or reliable source). Don t forget to cite the source of each quote as you write (if you do not cite sources the quoted information in your paper will be considered plagiarized).

3 Follow the conventions of standard written English. The research paper should be one to two typed pages double spaced. Zeus - king of the gods and ruler of the heavens Gods and Goddesses of Greek Mythology Hera- wife of Zeus and goddess of married women Poseidon god of the seas Hades god of the underworld Aphrodite goddess of love and beauty Ares god of war Apollo god of prophesy and music Artemis goddess of the hunt and the moon Athena goddess of wisdom Hephaestus god of fire and metalwork Hermes god of commerce and cunning Demeter goddess of the harvest Dionysus god of wine Hestia goddess of home and hearth Helios sun god Uranus sky god supplanted by his son Cronus Gaea earth goddess and mother of the Titans and Cyclopes The Fates Three goddesses who wove the threads of each person s life Clotho, Lachesis, and Atropos The Muses - nine goddesses who presided over the arts and sciences 2. On a poster board create a standard sizes poster board presentation of researched information about the god that you selected for the research paper. This may include
4 pictures drawings, magazine photos. Remember you will use this in a presentation to the class about the god or goddess that you selected. Be creative.
