The Lightning Thief packet is due on Tuesday, November 24.  On this day we will have a Greek celebration.  You will need to do one of the following and bring it in on Tuesday.

1.  Bring in a Greek food item to share with the class and write a paper on why you chose this food item and how you prepared it.  We need to know the purpose for choosing this food.  Also, make sure you write down the recipe.

2.  Make a toga  to wear during the celebration.  The toga must represent one of the gods and have his/her symbols.  Be sure to write down what the different symbols represent.

3.  Design a 3-D symbol for the god of your choice and write down the explanation of that symbol and why it is important to the myth.

4.  Research a game that the Olympians played and come prepared to teach the game to the class.  Have all equipment needed to play the game. OR Make a board game with questions and have everything needed to play the game.
