About the Series: The Reaching Olympus series uses classroom-tested script-stories specifically designed for 6th-12th grade students to re-tell the great myths and legends of world mythology. Script-stories are an innovative and powerful teaching tool that allows students to break away from silent reading and actively participate in an "acting out" experience where words and myth come to life!

Extras for Teachers: Each script-story is prefaced by a 2-page teacher guide providing a synopsis of the myth, relevant background information and commentary on the myth, anticipatory questions for pre-story discussion, essential questions to help analyze the "big ideas" behind each myth, recall questions to check reading comprehension, and instructions for teaching commonly-tested terms and literary devices using each play. Supplemental materials include a temple-building game, a Find-It (Where's-Waldo-style) puzzle, two bonus myths ("The Contest for Athens" and "The Adventures of Apollo"), a glossary of important characters, and a name pronunciation guide.
