What is one thing you learned today!

How confident do you feel with your project you just turned in?

Below your reading logs answer the following questions:1. Who recognizes Odysseus as master of Ithaca? What is the effect of this

scene? In what way is it symbolic?

2. In book 17, Athena urges Odysseus to beg from all of the suitors to “test them, so we can tell the innocent from the guilty,” even though she doesn’t plan to spare any of them. Why would she do this? What does it show about Odysseus’ character that he not only complies, but really throws himself into the role, especially with Antinous?

Odyssey: The Beggar and the Faithful Dog

As Odysseus must soon prepare to take back his castle we need to think about how he will defend himself. This is a kill or be killed scenario...

Brainstorm with your table mates a list of weapons available to Odysseus? (put in notebook)

• What other cultures use those weapons? • How has weaponry changed over time? • If you were around then what weapon would you

choose?

Weaponry of the Odyssey

Missing Book Presentations

Take Diligent notes while your peers teach you about parts of the Odyssey that you will not read.

Ask any questions you may have so there is clarity.
