퍼시 잭슨과 번개 도둑: 독서 동아리와 소설 연구

"Percy Jackson is a good kid, but he can't seem to focus on his schoolwork or control his temper. And lately, being away at boarding school is only getting worse - Percy could have sworn his pre-algebra teacher turned into a monster and tried to kill him. When Percy's mom finds out, she knows it's time that he knew the truth about where he came from, and that he go to the one place he'll be safe. She sends Percy to Camp Half Blood, a summer camp for demigods (on Long Island), where he learns that the father he never knew is Poseidon, God of the Sea. Soon a mystery unfolds and together with his friends—one a satyr and the other the demigod daughter of Athena - Percy sets out on a quest across the United States to reach the gates of the Underworld (located in a recording studio in Hollywood) and prevent a catastrophic war between the gods."

Over the course of three weeks, the teacher will provide relevant background information in relation to the setting of the novel, Greek Mythology, and The Hero's Journey, and provide reading comprehension activities. Through reading and answering the comprehension questions in the classroom, we will explore the plot, character development, themes, symbols, and other literary devices. 

Activities for the class will include:
A reading guide each week with comprehension questions and activities
A video lesson for each week's chapters
Comprehension questions posted in the class for students to answer
A weekly comprehension quiz

This is a self-paced class where students can work at their own pace. There will be no live meetings.
