The entry document for this unit was delivered to the students as a scroll. Each student got a letter as they entered class. After reading it, it took them a few minutes to realize that they had to approach the teacher to get their supplies and begin the journey!
Dear Student,
This notice finds you in the familiar territory of your English classroom. You have been specifically selected to undertake a Hero’s Journey of your very own. Your Call to Adventure is to gain knowledge and understanding that you may claim and possess of your own by analyzing the Hero’s Journey of the Great King of Ithaca: Odysseus. If you refuse the call, you may be asked to explain your reasons and the gods will surely punish you. When you do decide to accept this call to your adventure, you may select two or three other crew mates and proceed to your most obvious ally to receive your list of challenges.
May the Gods’ Favor Shine on You,
Athena
