Kia ora from Aotearoa New Zealand
Thanks for the great unit on villian and heroes. This has made me excited about my topic pertaining to the history of Maori. I am also going to ask students to make a villian or a hero and to present it.
Thanks heaps for the tips.

I appreciate you posting this. I'm a frequent visitor to this website and I appreciate what I found here. I'm preparing for the Greek mythology unit and I believe I just found a great introduction to my unit. Big thank you to you and all those who have posted lessons here.

I'm starting a unit on an adapted play based on the Greek Myth of Theseus and the Minotaur, so it's a great introduction to the unit - thanks a bunch!

Hello --
I am homeschooling my high school aged daughter and researching ways to teach the philosophy of Joseph Campbell and his study of myth. I was so excited to discover this lesson plan as I was getting overwhelmed with trying to plan my own curriculum. Thanks so much! This looks great and I'm really looking forward to studying this my daughter and two friends.
