4. The Pantheon
Remember that -- Pantheon comes from the Greek word pan meaning all and theo meaning god.  
So pantheon means all the gods.  
We are not going to cover all the gods today because there are many, many Greek gods. 

Take notes on The Pantheon -- Give a page to each of the 14 major gods and goddesses.  
The notes from today are also on CANVAS under Mythology, Modules, Greek and Roman Mythology,  The Greek/Roman Pantheon
