Researching Characters

Knowing the kids' knowledge of Greek myths and characters surpass my own, we needed to do some research. Armed with sticky notes, note cards, and questions, we dove into encyclopedias, mythology reference books, and mythological anthologies. We ran to the library when we reached the limit of our resources, and even started creating our own drawings of these characters. As we learned more about these characters, we added our understandings to the shared collection. Our thinking has exploded!
