BACK:
- Use lines from the lyrics of the songs chosen (school appropriate) to explain how your monster looks, thinks, and feels in 2-3 paragraphs on the back of your paper. Include how Odysseus escaped from or defeated your monster. You may add in more songs on the back if you so choose. Minimum of four direct quotes from your songs in your paragraphs.

EXAMPLE:
The Water Titan often felt misunderstood. He traveled the lands asking, "do you feel like I do?" (Do You Feel Like We Do, Peter Frampton). The Water Titan, after getting no responses, then would get angry and "take a Louisville slugger to both headlights" as well as, "slash holes in all four tires" of oncoming horse drawn carriages (Before He Cheats, Carrie Underwood).
