 * Gods/Goddesses/Creatures Research Project: **

Each person in the group needs to read the articles about their god, goddess, or mythological creature and highlight key information. As a group, you will be presenting about your god/goddess/creature next class. The information you will be required to find/present is:
 * Both Greek and Roman names
 * A brief history of this god/goddess/creature: How, why, or what is this god, goddess, or creature famous for? Who are his/her parents? Siblings? Does he or she have an origin story? Is he/she involved in any major conflicts/scandals? What is the lasting impact of this god/goddess/creature?
 * Two images/pictures (minimum size 8 x 10)
 * Symbols that represented your god to the Greeks OR what they are symbolic of (at least 2)
 * Contemporary reference to your god/goddess/creature (at least 1)
 * Citations for all additional research (including pictures): use citation maker on the Lincoln website

This is group project, so you will be graded as a whole. Break up the research needs so that all the information is complete when you present next class.

HW: In your group, each person should read the packet I gave you in class fully, highlighting information that will help satisfy the requirements above. You will have to do a bit more research to find images and contemporary references. You need to create citations (use citation maker []) for any additional research, but not the packets I gave you. You will have time on Tuesday/Wednesday to prepare, and we will begin presentations on Thursday/Friday of this week.
