When a student takes this class they can expect a fun and interactive journey through the story of how Hercules captured the man eating Mares of Diomedes. Class will first begin with a short meet-and-greet. Once acquainted, we will delve into a dramatic telling of some of Hercules' exploits.

Students will learn about Hercules, Eurystheus, Copreus, Diomedes, his Mares (Podargos, Lampon, Xanthos, and Deinos), Abderus, Hera, Zeus, and Alexander the Great. Students will be encouraged to speak, ask questions, and be questioned themselves with a focus on comprehension skills and critical thinking.
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

In the tale the stables are described as being splattered with the blood of their victims. The story includes several instances where the horses eat both companions and enemies of Hercules.
