Mythology
Due to an increased interest in Roman and Greek Mythology, I have created a new assignment.
You will look through the following sites about Greek or Roman Mythology, once you have chosen a God or Goddess that you want to write about, you will write your name and your partner's name on the back board, along with that of your chosen God or Goddess.
Once you are finished, you and your partner will write a brief paper, in your own words telling me all about the Deity that you chose.
