 Look at the myth chart we completed in class and highlight the lines where the stories were all similar.  Then, write a reflective paragraph upon the similarities found in the four myths.  That means, I'd like you to reflect upon why four distinct groups--living at four different times in history in four completely separate areas--shared some of the same ideas about the unknown?  What does this tell us about humanity?

Please don't supply a laundry list of all the similarities.  Think about why those similarities exist. Your paragraph is due on Monday, September 29th.

Don't forget about the dividers (due next Wednesday).  Have a great weekend.

Hello 10's.  Sorry for the late post. I experienced some technical difficulties.  Here is your vocabulary word and definition courtesy of Michael R.:  Irony --a state of affairs or an event that seems deliberately contrary to what one expects; the difference between what one expects and what is actually true.  Please email this word and definition to me.

Please make sure that you have completed the Student Information Sheet.
