Objective: Continue to learn background information about ancient Greece and the Greek gods preparing to begin Homer's Odyssey.

Warm- Up

In your own words, using the notes you took yesterday, tell me:

1. Why and how the Trojan war started.
2. How did Odysseus get into the city of Troy?
3. Who won the war?


4. Read together parts of holt text 644-650. Take notes.

5. Find a partner and choose any two characters from pages 647 - 648 and write ten facts in notebook about them. this info will be used to create illustations accompanied by character traits and facts. These will be hung in room so you can refer to them throughout the reading of the Odyssey (so do a good job)!
