Description

Used as part of a unit on Greek mythology. Includes the story of the gorgon Medusa alongside Common Core aligned questions. Question focuses are labeled, and require students to access prior knowledge, make connections to their experiences, cite text evidence, and write a summary.

Story is an edited version of the one found here: http://www.historyforkids.org/learn/greeks/religion/myths/medusa.htm

Feel free to edit and use as you like! Created for my 6th grade ELA class, but would work for any middle school class.
