Do Now: Does Hodur exhibit traits of an archetypal figure? Explain which ones you think apply.
Classwork:
Loki's punishment seems to resemble the Greek system of punishment.
Explain how Loki suffers at the end of the myth.
How does this myth reflect Norse beliefs and values?
Essay question:  How does this Norse legend differ from the Greek myth, Theseus?  Compare the differing views of life the Greek and Norse myths present. 
Plan of attack: 
1. Brainstorm possible answers to the question.
2. Organize your ideas into two or three headings.
3. Gather evidence from the texts to support your ideas. 
4. Outline the body of your essay.  
Homework: Write a rough draft of the body of your essay.
