4/10 - Tricksters/ Native American


What we did in class:

1) Students will further their understanding of the “trickster” archetype.
 
2) Students will read, discuss, and compare a variety of Native American myths.





We discussed the Native American tricksters Raven and Coyote

We watched a video

We read examples of  Coyote myths.

Class work: 5 points
We then wrote a paragraph explaining how Coyote myth is an example of the trickster archetype.

We took a Quiz: 5 points

1) List three qualities of the trickster archetype.

Homework:
Post # 8 - Resolution
Hello again!

For this post I would like you to focus on the resolution of your myth. By resolution, I mean how is the conflict in your myth finally resolved. In other words, how does the story end? The resolution is where loose ends are finally brought together. Consider this to be the conclusion of your myth.
