If you are interested in finding a specific individual (i.e. Penelope) try pressing CTRL and F at the same time to search for the name. It should direct you to the specific book or passage that mention's that individual's journey.**

__September 1: Find instances of references to the Olympian gods in your lives.__ __This assignment will be due September 8.__

__Instructions:__

__Ask yourselves where you have seen references to the gods and goddesses in your lives. For one week pay attention to how many references to mythology (Greek or Roman) you come across. You can/should look for businesses, advertisements, events, books, movies or music. I've provided some examples here: Nike shoes, websites (Amazon), the Percy Jackson book series, restaurants (one student told me about a restaurant in Bethesda with the god Bacchus in its name), types of cars (Honda Odyssey), etc. You can use references that you come across in your normal routine (e.g. traveling between school and home) or you can use references that you look up. Your assignment is to identify at least 4 references.__

__I would like this to be a fun activity - it should not be viewed as a stressful project. It is not. It is an extended homework assignment - just a few minutes a day will do. As for what format I would like it in, I think a running list would be easiest and perhaps best. But, I have had some students already ask me about single-page long narrative versions, describing the 4 or more things they found, and photo logs, of statues and store names they have seen. All are permissible. What your homework must have though, regardless of format, is: the item (store, brand, statue, place, advertisement, etc.) and what mythological story/character it is referencing.__

__I will be counting this as several homework assignments, to account for your extra effort.__

__August 31: CANCELLED. In class today, we did not finish an important PowerPoint that I wanted to review before everyone attempted the homework. As a result, I have decided to cancel the original worksheet ("Olympians and Beyond") that I had assigned. We will do that in class tomorrow after we finish the PowerPoint we started today and in place of reviewing the previous night's homework.__



__August 30: Prepare and fill out a "Derivative Tree" for a root you did not use in class earlier.__

__August 29: Complete the worksheet on Latin roots and English derivatives (entitled "Exercise 1.2").__

__August 28: Complete the worksheet entitled "Exercise 1.1". You will be prompted to use the conversational Latin we have reviewed for the last several days (it may be helpful to have the copy of the vocabulary chart you prepared in class on hand). As a note, questions 4 and 5 ask that you to respond in English. You may use your current hometown (example: Washington, D.C.) and the current year (2017) for the answers. It is also permissible to use one of the geographic locations that were introduced in class today as an answer to number 4.__
