Due 4/9

There is no homework due today UNLESS you still haven't given me a copy of your Hero's stories.

Today in class we read the first part of the story of Theseus. We worked on a map that showed the highlights of his voyage from his home town to Athens and then to Crete.

If you were absent, instead of a map, you must create an illustrated timeline showing 10 of the events that happen to him up to the point where he kills the Minotaur. Make sure you have an even for each of the 3 bandit encounters he had along the way.
