Thor: Ragnarok Teaching Packet (Viewing Guide + Norse Mythology Worksheets)
After teaching mythology for nearly twenty years, I have finally found a film that works as a good companion film for our Norse mythology unit: Marvel Studios' Thor: Ragnarok (2017). Although superhero films may seem like mindless action, Thor: Ragnarok adapts its Norse mythology source material in interesting ways. Famous characters from Norse mythology like Hela, Valkyrie, Heimdall, Odin, Fenrir the giant wolf (not to mention Thor and Loki) all star in Marvel's version of the Norse Day of Doom

Today, the play raises questions about the place of tragedy in modern life.This in-depth unit plan is based on the various activities I created when teaching Oedipus in differe
