Due 3/4

There is no official homeword assignment due on Tuesday. However, most people will be working on completing their Jason Comic strip over the weekend and using a late pass to turn in in.

On Friday, we watched the first part of the classic 1963 movie version of Jason and the Argonauts. There is an assignment based on this, but most likely, you can complete it by watching the second half of the movie.

Due 2/29

Jason Comic Strip Assignment:

Reading:

BB: 159-167
LB: 122-127

After you complete your reading of the first part of the Quest for the Golden Fleece, you will be creating a comic strip that has 10 boxes. Each box should contain a picture of the action and a caption describing it. You will probably also want to include dialog in each box.

Obviously, if all you can draw is stick figure, that's fine! However, if you consider yourself limited in artistic ability, you might want to include some color to make it look like you put some time into it.

This assignment will be worth 5 Land.

If you do not have all three parts of Glossary 1 finished, you should use this weekend to get caught up.

Due 2/8 Glossary 1, Part 3

Today is class we watched presentations on the stories of Demeter and Dionysus (the chapter in the book is called the two great gods of the earth). If you were absent, you will need to read and take notes on these stories, and ask me how to make up presentation points.

Your homework for Friday is to complete Glossary 1 part 3. Page numbers are

BB: 85-94
LB: 70-77

The terms are:

Prometheus, Epimetheus, Pandora, Chiron


Also, if you'd like to earn extra Gold, bring in some scotch (clear) tape to donate for a classroom project.

I also assigned the Hades Project as a long term project. The due date will be sometime in the new few weeks.

Due 2/6 Presentations

You will need to be prepared for your presentation on Demeter or Dionysus tomorrow. Make sure you know your part of the story well and are prepared to present.

If you were absent, you might be joining with a group to help them out. If your help isn't needed, we'll find another way for you to make up those points.
