It is never appropriate to use the work of others.  That is called plagiarism.  In order to avoid the temptation to cut and paste from the Internet, the writing portion of this assignment is going to be very subjective.    You will be asked to select the god or goddess that you find most impressive, find at least five interesting facts from your research and compile them into an interesting report.

Steps and Details for the Writing Assignment

1.  Do some research
(Here are some suggested Web sites)

Mythology
 

The Book of Gods, Goddesses, Heroes and Other Characters of Mythology
 

Greek Mythology
 

Online Books - Bulfinch's Mythology: The Age of Fable or Stories of Gods and Heroes
 

Encyclopedia Mythica
 
 

2.  Write Your Report
(three - four paragraphs long)

The first paragraph - identify the god/goddess selected and explain your  personal interest in him/her.

The second paragraph -  include five interesting facts discovered through  research.  Be sure to use transition words.

The third paragraph - wrap it up with a conclusion that emphasizes the spectacular qualities of the god  selected.
