In this ongoing class, learners will be exposed to ancient Greek mythology. We will explore different myths involving the gods who live on Mount Olympus, how they came to be there, and their interactions with each other and the mortal men over whom they ruled. In week one, we will learn about the Titans who came before the gods on Mount Olympus and their importance in the early formation of Greek mythology. In week two, we will focus on Zeus, the god of all Olympic gods and men. We will explore the rest of the gods in weeks three and four with Hera and Poseidon. We will continue with new stories and myths every week. Students will be exposed to photos of statues of the Greek gods, the temples where the Greek people worshiped them, and some paintings or illustrations depicting the Greek gods and goddesses throughout the classes. (I will make sure there are no nude depictions, or at the very least that the pictures are cropped or censored appropriately.) The material will be presented in a slide show accompanied by lectures and stories in a story-telling format. Students are encouraged to raise their hands to participate in questions and share the knowledge they already possess about Greek mythology. I am so excited to share these stories with your learner and to, in turn, learn from them!
