Classic Greek Myths

Today we watched three short films on Greek myths. The first was about a boy who's father was a great inventor, yet he himself was a really clumsy kid. The second movie was about the Minotaur and how every seven years they send people to an island as a sacrifice to the Minotaur. Finally the third film was about a king who wanted a son so he went to the oracle. The Oracle told him that his daughter would have a son. He would kill him so he threw his daughter and her son off a cliff.

In my opinion the third film was the best. It had a better description of what was going on, the story line related to the topic of the Greek gods and Titans, and finally it made you think, "What would have happened if the father had not thrown his daughter and her son into the sea?"
