Description
Class Experience
Welcome to the world of Percy Jackson! DESCRPTION: - This is the first class of five that takes an in-depth look at the extensive classical influence that runs throughout the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series written by Rick Riordan. - This is meant to be a FUN adventure to better understand the deeper meaning beneath the mythical context included in the books. - Students will learn about and discuss some of the significant Greek gods (and Roman counter parts) and other characters...
Students will obtain a more comprehensive understanding of the Greco-Roman myths that influence the Percy Jackson Book 1 "The Lightening Thief" and understand the literary role of "the hero".
I am fascinated by the Greco-Roman world; its history, literature, culture, and languages. I have an M.A. in Classics and have taught Roman history, as well as other Classics related subjects, to a range of ages and skill levels online and in a traditional classroom. This course is meant to be fun! I have read the Percy Jackson series many times, so I thought it would be fun to combine my two passions into this exciting class that explores the world of Percy Jackson through classics.
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
55 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
