Reading the Odyssey

We began reading about the journey of Odysseus in two groups and versions. Ms. Klein's group read a version by Bernard Evslin while Bernadette's group read a version written in multiple parts by Mary Pope Osborne. We read this exciting tale of the brave and talented Odysseus and then wrote a five paragraph essay. The essay was about our favorite character or why we thought the story of The Odyssey has lasted so long. This we did in school. While out of school we worked on making a project conveying something from The Odyssey.

Below are a couple of different projects.
