宿題:
There is no compulsory homework element to the project, but children typically enjoy developing creative responses to the monsters we meet along the way. Between sessions, I will be encouraging children to draw the characters as they see them, and will be inviting them to make masks out of cardboard and other commonly available recycled stuff. This is entirely optional and the making would take place outside our five lessons. I emphasise that this is not essential.

Come and discover one of the world’s oldest and most exciting stories: The Odyssey.

Homer’s ‘The Odyssey’ tells of how Odysseus, a survivor of the Trojan War, makes his perilous journey home. Along the way he and his soldiers encounter Cyclopes, a sorceress, fearsome sea monsters and many other challenges. At the same time, we learn of what is happening back at home on Ithaka, as Odysseus’s wife, Penelope, and son, Telemachus, struggle to maintain hope and control as they are preyed upon by invaders.

While we will use extracts from Emily Wilson’s beautiful translation of ‘The Odyssey’, and I will share from some children’s books, this project is one in which we bring the story to life through oral storytelling, discussion and drama. I am not just reading to them - I tell the story in a way that shares my interpretation, and I encourage the children to create their own interpretations. 

The class can work brilliantly well on its own, but it works best if your child has already taken part in ‘The Iliad Project’ which I run. Odysseus is a character we first meet in the Iliad, and his story continues in this project.

The way in which we share and tell this tale together focuses on the excitement and drama of the events, and is a project which is designed to entertain and fascinate you. We take a unique look at the story, which brings a lot of humour out of it. We imagine Odysseus as a beleaguered comic hero, for whom one bad thing happens after another.

Like all my classes, I am to balance humour, curiosity, a brilliant social dynamic and some real intellectual rigour. 

Lesson 1 - The Journey Home Begins - Raids, Lotus-Eaters and the Cyclopes
Lesson 2 - Poor choices  - The Witch, The Pigmen and the Fury of Zeus 
Lesson 3 - Getting closer - Imprisonment, Athena and the Bravery of Telemachus
Lesson 4 - The Revenge of Wisdom -  Arrival in Ithaka, the slaying of the suitors
Lesson 5 - Slow Reflection - What can we learn from the story of Odysseus?

I have taught Ancient Greek tales in this way in UK primary schools since 2019, and am able to teach it in a way that is age-appropriate in terms of challenge and content. My Iliad Project on Outschool has rave reviews.

Testimonial from a UK teacher whose students I taught:

'I was amazed at how, through Jonny's storytelling - which was both intricate and engaging - the children were able to internalise the complex narrative and use all of the new vocabulary.'
