Eighth Grade Summer Reading Project Due: thursday , September 3, 2015 Reading Assignment : Read favorite greek myths by Mary Pope Osborne and The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan. Writing Task: favorite greek myths tells stories from greek mythology in a traditional way. The Lightning Thief takes characters, events, and ideas from greek mythology and tells a story that combines those traditional elements with modern characters and a modern setting. Your Assignment is to select a story from favorite greek myths and use the characters, events, and ideas from that traditional story in writing your own, original story that also includes modern characters and a modern setting. The Lightning Thief features humor and action, and if you want your story to be funny and/or action packed, that s fine. However, it would also be fine to write a story with more of a serious or sad tone. Special Note for Students Who Have Already Read The Lightning Thief: If you have already read this novel, read the next novel (that you have not already read) from the Percy Jackson series.
