SOCIAL STUDIES LESSON - "Greek Mythology Webquest for Kids"

Greek Mythology Webquest for Kids
4th-8th Grade
By:  The History Wizard



Students will gain basic knowledge about the Greek gods and goddesses by completing an internet-based worksheet. This website is great for students who might be studying World History, Literature, Mythology, Greek, or Latin. The Greek Mythology Webquest uses the following great website.

My students enjoy learning about the Greek gods and goddess using this website. This website is tame and is a G or PG version of Greek Mythology. I use this activity as a review or introduction activity and it takes at least one class period to complete. Feel free to modify this activity if needed to fit the needs of your students. The webquest covers 21 Greek gods and goddess and a teacher answer sheet is included. The following questions are covered are in the webquest for each god or goddess.

Greek Name:
Roman Name:
Who was he or she married to?
What is this god or goddess most well known for? 
List at least two special powers, abilities, or interesting details about this god or goddess:
