I created this so that they could see the relationship between characters in the film The Lion King and the classic tragedy. This allowed them to focus more on analyzing the text, the challenging language, and the complex themes, instead of getting stuck on the characters.

AWESOME Greek mythology song (superb "hook")
This is the best and most engaging "hook" for any unit involving teaching Greek mythology to teenagers that you will ever find. SAMPLE PREVIEW VERSES:
For instance, the story of Cronus is strange:
He murders his father and becomes deranged.
After marrying his sister Rhea for fun,
He eats all his children – all except one.
Zeus escapes swallowing and one day comes home –
Cronus pukes up the five kids, now fully grown –
Then Zeus kills his dad, sealing Cronus’ fate.
