Gods

 

Despite Ancient Greece placing a strong emphasis on rational and scientific thought, one of the most well known (and most popular) features of Ancient Greek society was the Greek Gods.

 

There were literally hundreds  of Gods and each and every one of them represented a certain quality. Places were named after them, festivals were held in their honour and people prayed to these Gods on a regular basis.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You will be required to select one God and complete two tasks. Before you undertake these tasks you must select a God that has some connection to you- it can be a quality that you value highly, a personality trait that you believe represents you, or a God that you admire.

 

TASK

Create a social network page  of your selected God.

This must include:

  - A profile picture

  - A photo album (humorous captions optional),

  - Information on who they are

  - Posts such as status updates, check-ins, and messages to other friends.

 

Whilst creative and fun, these should bear resemblance to the God you have selected. It is also on this page that you will need to explain why you choose the God.
