Today we'll begin with a short grammar review for warm-up. Remember, our actual test will be on Tuesday of next week.
Copy these sentences into your grammar notes. First, identify the subjects and verbs. Then label all verbs as action (AV), linking (LV), or helping (HV). Finally, identify direct objects, indirect objects, and subject complements when they exist.
Odysseus and his men traveled for ten years after the Trojan War.
The cyclops will become angry at Odysseus.
Athena gives Odysseus confidence in himself.
Near the beginning, lotus eaters offer flowers to the men.
Next we will jump into The Odyssey. Before we begin reading, we'll take a few notes on the timeline of events in order to help us place the story in history. Finally, we'll crack open our textbooks to read "Tell the Story" together, taking notes as we go.
