Storyboard Project
You are going to create a storyboard for Book 9 of The Odyssey. Your storyboard is a series of
at least nine images that show events from the Odyssey in order, as if it was a picture book.
You may create your own images with colored pencil, marker, etc. or use appropriate images
from the internet, magazines, etc.. You may present your storyboard as a booklet with nine
different pages, a poster with each image displayed on one side, or as a PowerPoint
presentation. Show the events of your “movie” in the order they appear in Book 9.
Under each image, write down the QUOTATION from The Odyssey that accompanies the
image. Under each quotation, paraphrase the quotation by putting it in your own words.
Thus, your final product will have 9 Images, 9 quotations, and 9 paraphrases. A days are due
NOVEMBER 21 and B-days are due NOVEMBER 22.
