This is a 8 week class where the students will read through chapters of The Son of Neptune each week. Each class we will be discussing the chapters we read, going over vocabulary for the chapters and answering discussion questions. Every student will need a copy of The Son of Neptune: The Heroes of Olympus by Rick Riordan and each week they will need to read the chapters before the next class. Students are expected to actively participate during class and with the assigned reading and discussion questions each week.
Learning Goals
Students will learn to establish and share their own thoughts while reading a book. We will be looking at new vocabulary for each of the chapters. Discussing what we think about what has happened, is happening and will happen as we move through the book.

Other Details
Parental Guidance
The entire story revolves around the idea that the gods of Greece and Rome really exist and are involved in everyday life. The children that result from their liaisons with mortals are demigods. At special camps set up for them, they are instructed in self-defense and warfare so they can combat the monsters sent to destroy them. Lares, or ghosts of ancestors, inhabit the Roman camp. Octavian sacrifices stuffed animals on the altar of Jupiter in order to read the signs and tell the future. Frank’s grandmother burns incense and believes in Asian gods. She has statues of Buddha around the house. She believes the number seven is unlucky. In her first life, people thought Hazel’s mother was a witch. She would tell people’s fortunes and hold séances. All of the demigods have special powers. Percy can control water. Frank can morph into other animals. Hazel can call precious stones and metals from the ground and manipulate their shape. Throughout the book, monsters and villains from the past are brought back to life because Thanatos, the god of the dead, has been captured. Much is made of a prophecy that foretells the coming of seven demigods, Greek and Roman, who must storm the gates of death. The Roman camp is preparing to celebrate the Feast of Fortuna, the goddess of good fortune. Reyna wishes Percy good luck.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree from Southern Nazarene University
Hi I am Teacher Kaylyn and I have been working with children in many different ways for over 15 years in many different ways. Most recently I have taught online for online since 2019, teaching ESL and here on Outschool. I have a 6 year old son and I am used to high energy fun. I love to make learning fun and I want to share my interests with others. Since I do have a young son I love to teach young students. It is great when they figure something out and you can see something click. I love to read and I really like to do book studies to share that love with others. I have learned that to start a passion for reading you need to find the right books that you can't put down. I want to help others to their own books they are passionate about. I love to make candies and my family loves it when I do also; they get all the samples. I hope to see you in class soon!
