My students..my learning disabled, emotionally disturbed, language impaired, ADD/ADHD you name they've been labeled it-students... are GREEK MYTHOLOGY SCHOLARS! Oh yes they are! It really brings tears to my eyes when I see how responsive these 4th and 5th graders are to this very sophisticated material. Their recall, their attention to detail, their sense of story structure and the amazing conversations that these stories initiate are so impressive. The level of interest my students have in the lives of these complex characters with odd sounding names like Persephone, Pasiphae, Ariadne, Arachne, Theseus, Daedalus ad infinitum.. is something I have never seen in 13 years of teaching. To experience with them these fascinating, rich, textured stories many of which I'm learning along with them, is SO exciting...It has been one of the greatest rewards of my teaching career.
