Greek Mythology Research
One of the most fascinating topics of Greek history is the religion. The Greeks believed in Polytheism, or the
worshipping of many gods and goddesses. As the class explores the Classical Greek world, questions should arise on
“Why did the Greeks associate natural events?” “What was the main purpose of portraying people in a good or evil
light?” This is what we are going to find out!
The objective is to create a comprehensive presentation about one of the Greek myths.
Complete the following:
1. Create a presentation of 8 to 10 slides. The following should be included:
a. Title Slide
b. Who is involved (Heroes, Gods/Goddesses, and/or Noteworthy individuals)
c. Location of where the myth takes place in the world (include the Underworld if it takes place there with an
artistic map of the Underworld)
d. Explanation of the myth
e. What is the moral/lesson the myth is supposed to deliver?
f.
How does the myth relate to modern culture?
g. Bibliography
Deadline for the Presentation
