We'll continue to examine the concept of heroism this week, focusing on Joseph Campbell's hero's journey.
We'll be discussing the differences and similarities between the terms "archetype" and "stereotype" in this springboard activity. We'll discuss and analyze the various stages in Campbell's hero's journey. In this activity, students will examine one step in the hero's journey: The Refusal of the Call. Then we'll read a section of Homer's Odyssey, focusing on the stage in the hero's journey of The Road of Trials and Odysseus's heroic qualities. (There's a link to the reading and activities in Springboard here.)
Also, we'll prepare for Friday's visit to JDHS for the "Romeo and Juliet in Music" performance. And, or course, we'll be doing some writing in our writing notebooks.
