Excellent resource for teaching The Odyssey. This is the second year in a row that I've used this as an activity for my students to get prepared for reading The Odyssey. The pictures are great, and the text on each slide is very detailed, covering topics from Epic Poetry to Traits of an Epic Hero, and so much more. The cloze reading passages are perfect for my ELL or ESE students who need support such as this. Thank you for this resource, I love having it as part of my plans!
