My fever is still over 100 degrees, and school policy for H1N1 precautions does not allow me to return to school until my fever drops below 100 degrees for 24 hours.
I am sorry that I have been missing discussions on The Odyssey; however, we can catch up on what's been happening in the epic when I return. And Ms. West, our neighboring Enriched 10 teacher, has been helping my subs with the lesson plans.
Keep reading the books as assigned on the bookmark, and if you want a quick summary of each book, remember to check out the bulletin board in class. You can also keep adding major characters to your character list. A character list will ultimately provide a basic plot summary if you list actions for the characters. In addition, following Odysseus's journey on Google Earth (see post below) will be a nice way to enhance your understanding of the setting and plot.
Here are the major characters in books 1-10:
Odysseus
Telemachus
Penelope
Poseidon
Zeus
Athena
Hermes
The Suitors
Eurycleia
King Nestor
King Menelaus
Helen
Calypso
Nausicaa
King Alcinous
Polyphemus
Aeolus
Circe
