This Greek Mythology Mega Bundle gives you one complete sequence of myths in three parallel formats— Readers Theater scripts, narrative Mini Readers, and curriculum-style audio lessons—so you can flexibly support every student in Grades 6–12. One core set of stories, three different ways to access them, and multiple assessment types built in.
Across the series, students move from the birth of the gods in the Theogony, through transformation myths like Arachne, Daphne, Echo, and Phaeton, into underworld bargains with Persephone/Proserpina, and on to heroic quests and epics such as Perseus, the Iliad, and the Odyssey. The story arc and big ideas stay consistent; what changes is how students engage with the material, making it easy to plan tiered supports, WIDA-aligned language practice, and MTSS/RTI interventions in ELA or Social Studies.
What’s Included in This Greek Mythology Mega Bundle
- 13 Greek Mythology Readers Theater scripts (most with two differentiated versions: Grades 6–8 and Grades 9–12).
- 12 narrative Mini Readers (advanced Grades 6–8 / introductory Grades 9–12 reading level).
- 12 curriculum-style audio lessons aligned to the same sequence of myths.
- Self-grading Google Forms quizzes, print-ready worksheets, and teacher guides to support reading, listening, speaking, and writing.
The Greek Mythology Readers Theater Scripts (13)
- Built for small groups, reading circles, and fluency work.
- Students speak, listen, and interact with content together instead of working alone, which is especially powerful for emerging readers and multilingual learners.
- Most scripts include two differentiated versions (Grades 6–8 and Grades 9–12) with age-appropriate language and Flesch–Kincaid scores.
- Perfect for oral fluency, performance reading, and supported small-group work.
- Great fit for students who benefit from rehearsal, peer support, and speaking/listening practice before writing.
Included Scripts:
- Arachne and Minerva
- Daedalus and Icarus
- Daphne and Apollo
- Echo and Narcissus
- Pandora’s Box
- Persephone, Demeter, Hades
- Perseus, Medusa and Andromeda
- Phaeton and Apollo’s Chariot
- Prometheus and the Gift of Fire
- The Iliad (adapted stories)
- The Theogony
- The Myth of Proserpina
- The Odyssey (adapted stories)
NOTE: The scripts Prometheus and the Gift of Fire and Pandora’s Box are two separate RT scripts but in the Mini Reader and Audio Lesson formats, they are combined into a single myth titled Prometheus & Pandora’s Box.
The Greek Mythology Mini Readers (12)
- Narrative “mini-novel” style texts written at an advanced Grades 6–8 / introductory Grades 9–12 level.
- Designed for students ready for more complex receptive reading demands: denser text, richer vocabulary, and more sophisticated structure.
- Each reader includes comprehension and higher-order questions so students can demonstrate productive written language (short answer, application, and analysis).
- Works well for independent reading, partner work, literature circles, or targeted small-group instruction.
- Built with clear sectioning (Introduction, Rising Action, Deeper Insights, Climax, Falling Action, Resolution & Reflection) to help students follow complex plots and build strong schema for Greek mythology.
Included Mini Readers:
- Daedalus and Icarus [FREE DOWNLOAD]
- Arachne and Minerva
- Echo and Narcissus
- Prometheus & Pandora’s Box
- Persephone, Demeter, and Hades
- The Myth of Proserpina
- Phaeton and Apollo’s Chariot
- Perseus, Medusa, and Andromeda
- Daphne and Apollo
- The Theogony
- The Iliad
- The Odyssey
The Greek Mythology Audio Lessons (12)
- Curriculum-style audio episodes (about 10–15 minutes each) that follow the same sequence of myths as the Mini Readers.
- Ideal for students who missed a day of instruction, struggle with print-heavy materials, or learn better through receptive auditory input.
- Perfect for listening centers, headphones work, or at-home reinforcement, with natural pause points for prediction, reflection, and quick-write responses.
- Useful as pre-reading to front-load background knowledge, as parallel access during reading, or as review after a text-based lesson.
- Helps you differentiate across WIDA levels by giving students a lower-threshold way into the same core content.
Included Audio Lessons:
- Daedalus and Icarus[FREE DOWNLOAD]
- Arachne and Minerva
- Echo and Narcissus
- Prometheus & Pandora’s Box
- Persephone, Demeter, and Hades
- The Myth of Proserpina
- Phaeton and Apollo’s Chariot
- Perseus, Medusa, and Andromeda
- Daphne and Apollo
- The Theogony
- The Iliad
- The Odyssey
All three formats cover the same core myth content. Readers Theater simply splits Prometheus and Pandora into two performance scripts, while the Mini Readers and audio lessons treat them as one combined story.
Assessment & Language Support Across the Bundle Across the three formats, you get a flexible mix of assessments and language supports that work together across WIDA proficiency levels and MTSS/RTI tiers.
- Self-graded multiple-choice quizzes (Google Forms) and printable exit quizzes for quick checks.
- Short-answer comprehension and higher-order questions tied to each myth.
- Graphic organizers and structured worksheets in the Mini Reader and script teacher guides.
- Vocabulary in context from each myth’s key terms (hubris, tribute, transformation, prophecy, etc.).
- Support for both receptive language (listening, reading) and productive language (speaking, writing).
You can move students up or down the support ladder as needed:
- Readers Theater for supported, oral, small-group access to the myths.
- Mini Readers for independent or partner reading plus written output.
- Audio Lessons for auditory access, make-up work, and reinforcement.
