The Odyssey Research Project- Ms. Leidahl, Mrs. Palmer

For the Odyssey Research Project, students must design a storybook that tells the Creation Story of the Greeks, or the story of any specific set, pair, or individual god/goddesses, monsters, nymphs, or muses. The book must be based on original research, contain illustrations (drawn or computer generated), and written for a specific audience. All project books must have a cover page, story title, author's names, illustrations and a reference (work cited) page.

Students will be given class time in the Information Center to work on the assignment. The LMS, Mrs. Hatcher will provide instruction on using MLA style and Noodletools. There will be several checkpoints/conferences to monitor progress by Mrs. Palmer, Ms. Leidahl and Mrs. Hatcher.
