Objective: I can match the elements(archetypes and stages) of the Journey of a Hero with moments in the Wizard of Oz.
Bell: In your spiral notebook underneath your last entry, write the definitions for these stages: Meeting With the Mentor, Crossing the First Threshold, and Tests, Allies, and Enemies.
- As you view the movie, make specific connections between the JOH elements and specific moments. i.e. Dorothy falls into the pig sty and shows that she is in the Ordinary World stage because she seems like a fish out of water.
- In groups of 3 or 4, match one moment with one of the elements on a post-it.
- As a whole class, review the elements leading up to Stage 5 with a post-it discussion.
