Ancient Greek FAQ project
Frequently Asked Question pages are very helpful. Often we see them
on websites anticipating questions you might have on a specific topic.
For this project you will research your chosen Greek god or hero and
create a FAQ page which you will create and present orally to the class.
Your task –
a) Choose a god or hero involved in “The Odyssey” to research:
Odysseus
Circe
Zeus
The Sirens
Scylla and Charybdis Apollo
The Cyclops
Poseidon
Hermes
Calypso
Aeolus
Persphone
Tiresias
Helios
Hades
Laertes
Chronos
Hera
Penelope
Agamemnon
Menelaus
Ajax
Hector
Dionysis
b) Using the internet websites listed on my website, research the gods and heroes to choose from
and lay claim to your choice (first come/first serve).
c) Research your god or hero. Create a list of appropriate FAQ’s (such as ‘What is their
genealogy?’ ‘Do they have any special powers?’ ‘What are they a leader of or in charge of?’
‘What stories are associated with the hero/god?’) Answer your questions in thorough paragraphs.
Completed document should be 1 ½ to 2 pages.
d) Follow the format of the FAQ page below. (see Powerpoint samples at my website calendar, but
it can be a paper document only)
e) Create a bibliography of sources.
f) Turn in a paper copy to be graded.
