He needs to write a double-spaced 2-3 page story in first person point of view (using I, me, my, we) to retell what happened from that perspective. I have the reading passage for whichever one he chooses to write. This was the writing prompt for the narrative: Construct a narrative in which you rewrite one of the readings in class from another character’s point of view.
Here are your options to choose from:
Perseus and Medusa
Echo and Narcissus
Theseus and the Minotaur
Daedalus and Icarus
Perseus: His journey to kill the Gorgon
Echo: The beautiful nymph that talked too much and always wanted to have the last word.
King Minos: The builder of the labyrinth and keeper of the minotaur.
Icarus: what his journey was like when he was creating the wings/ escaping/ flying close to the sun and ignoring his dad’s advice.
Medusa: When she saw Perseus coming to kill her
Narcissus: The vain young man who loved himself to the death.
Theseus: Prince of Athens, one who takes on the labyrinth and the minotaur.
Daedalus: The process he went through in being locked in a tower with his son after being King Minos’ lead builder, and building wings for them to escape.
Danae: feelings about being locked in a tower and married to Zeus/ having Perseus as a baby
Juno/Hera: Queen of the gods that cursed Echo for tricking her and allowing her husband (Zeus) to flirt with the nymphs. Minotaur: How he felt about being placed in the middle of a labyrinth and kept captive to kill people every year. Your own POV: What it is like living in the land of King Minos, and always fearing the labyrinth and being captured by the cruel leaders.
