04.09 - Roy and Gilgamesh

We continued our discussion today of Gilgamesh's story by comparing and contrasting it to a similar journey story, that of Gimmesome Roy in Shel Silverstein's poem "The Perfect High". Our work and discussion with this sheet was guided by the provided processing questions which we followed along with in class.

We will wrap up our discussion of Gilgamesh in class tomorrow by reviewing the hero's journey note sheet that everyone completed and by reviewing the last page of discussion questions which we started work with yesterday.
