  2. What you need to do: • You will conduct research about the God/Goddess or Muse you select. • You will need to find out family history • Father and Mother • Siblings • Spouse • Children • What they are best known for • Then you will create a story where YOU are that God/Goddess or Muse that connects to the type of life they lived. It can imaginative but it has to be school appropriate. Examples: you can take something that happened to you and turn that into the story with you Greek God but it has to connect to what they are best known for. • There needs to be pictures of your God/Goddess or Muse at least 4 no more than 8 • When you present you may dress up like your God/Goddess or Muse • You may use 1-2 of the main gods in your story but no more because your God is the main character of your story.

  5. Pictures of Nike

  6. I Believe Archeologists, came across a Ancient Greek site and discovered a story about Nike the Goddess of Victory. It took them about a week to piece the story together and this is what it said. The story starts off innocent enough with Nike and Athena discussing how they were going to win a contest. Not, just any contest but a contest about love. You will work on this in GoogleDocs. You will share it with me on the day you present which is March 26th! You may print the Powerpoint off at HOME not at school. You will write at least 3 paragraphs no more than 5. Each paragraph should be between 5-8 sentences long. You should do a rough draft on paper so you can edit and revise then type up the final copy. You will need at least 3 slides but you can have up to 6 slides. One for the Bio Pictures Story Have fun!
