Please be advised that our Greek Mythology class delves into the rich tapestry of ancient myths, including stories of gods and goddesses. While these tales are fascinating and formative elements of cultural history, some narratives may contain themes of power dynamics, conflicts, violence, and mythological relationships that could be complex or intense for some students. Rest assured, our discussions will be handled with sensitivity and a focus on the educational aspects of these myths. I encourage open conversation between students and parents to navigate anything that may be challenging for your child.

I will use several sources for this class.  
1.  D'Aulaires' Book of Greek Myths
2.  Greeking Out by Kenny Curtis
3.  Greek and Roman Mythology by Frank Edgar
4.  Leveled Texts for Classic Fiction: Mythology by Stephanie Paris
