Something to think about over the weekend ...


English 9A Final
Graded Discussion

You don't need to do any writing over the weekend, but you might want to think about how you would answer each of the following questions.
 
1.     Consider the way Odysseus treated his crew. Was he a good leader? Why do you think so?

2.     Which trait was more valuable to Odysseus: strength or cleverness? Why do you think so?

3.     Why was Odysseus a hero to the Greeks? Would he still be considered a hero today? Why or why not?

4.     Why do we still tell hero stories?

5.     Should English teachers continue to teach The Odyssey? Why or why not?

6.     What was the most enjoyable classroom experience you had this trimester? Think about teachers who managed to help you learn something and have fun at the same time.

7.     What’s the most useful thing you’ve learned this trimester (in school or out)? How did you learn it? Why was it so useful?
