04.10 - Gilgamesh's Hero's Journey Slideshow

In today's class we focused on analyzing Gilgamesh's hero's journey. We did this by breaking the class into groups of three or four and having groups represent each stage of the journey as a slide from Gilgamesh's adventure. Slides were narrated by a presenter who explained which stage of the hero's journey was being presented and what was happening (directions from class shown below).

Each group then presented their hero's journey slide show for Gilgamesh. During these presentations, I took note of which stage each slide represented and the order in which they occurred. We then discussed similarities and differences between the two groups' identification of stages and what that told us about the story.

Our conversation of the stages of the hero's journey transitioned us into the Gilgamesh discussion questions (see below). We will have a final quiz over this story tomorrow.
