Thank you so much for helping Mrs. Tkach today. I was so sorry not to be with you.
I hope that you are enjoying The Iliad. We are going to watch a movie about it next week, so please be on time so that we can begin.
Literature: Read Book 6-9 of The Iliad.
Answer the following questions in your notebook:
1. Do you think that you can identify the moral of the epic? If so, what lesson do you think that Homer was teaching?
2. The gods play an important role in The Iliad. How do they influence the other characters? Give three examples.
3. In Book 7, who is chosen to fight Hector? How is he elected? Do they duel? What happens?
4. Why do both sides take a day from fighting?
5. In Book 9, what is proposed to Achilles? Why?
It is my hope that these questions will help you dig a little deeper in your reading.
History: Read Chapters 17-19 in SWB's Ancient History.
Please make at least 5 bullet points for each chapter. These should go into your notebook.
Vocabulary: Quiz on the new ten roots. They are listed on a separate post.
Thank you to Mrs. Tkach and Valerie.
God bless!
