  1. October 3, 2018Freshman HumanitiesMr. Reiff Aim: “Dear friend, do not speak like a coward” Gilgamesh: The Forest Journey

  2. DO NOW Journal Writing “I get by with a little help from my friends” -The Beatles Think back to a difficult time in your life. Who helped you through that time? Was there a friend or family member that was there for you in your time of need?

  3. ***SCHEDULE NOTES*** • 10/4 – Gilgamesh, Part III • 10/5 – Summer Reading Seminars on The Alchemist

  4. Homework Please read Chapter 3 of Gilgamesh, p. 85-96, and address the EQ on our turnitin.com discussion board.

  5. Journal Writing Would anyone like to share their journal entry?

  6. The Forest Journey On the journey, Gilgamesh and Enkidu alternate between fear and courage. Did you see examples of this in our hero stories? What role do friends play in the hero’s journey?

  7. The Forest Journey Does this wavering in the face of battle diminish Their Gilgamesh and Enkidu’s heroic status?

  8. Textual Evidence What do you think I mean when I use the term “textual evidence”? On the next few slides, there are a series of questions. You will work with a partner to answer them using textual evidence.

  9. The Forest Journey How are our heroes equipped for battle? How does the battle end?

  10. The Forest Journey Who is in charge on the journey? Who actually kills Humbaba? How do the gods react?

  11. The Forest Journey Why do you think Gilgamesh takes Enkidu with him on such a dangerous mission? Why does he need Enkidu?

  12. Our Own Journey Are The Beatles correct? Do we all need friends to help us on our own journeys? Is it possible to “go it alone”
