Zeus' Origins: A Kahoot


https://create.kahoot.it/share/zeus-origin/194911b0-9da9-4276-b5af-ddaecab97604

The overthrowing of Ouranos by Kronos and his titan brothers brought in a new era of ruling. Kronos ruled over all with his sister and wife, Rhea, and each of the four brothers who assisted him now ruled a different corner of the world, the north, the south, the east, and the west. Upon the birth of Kronos’ first daughter, Hestia, Kronos’ own mother, Gaia, foretold that one of his children, a son, would overthrow him as he did to his own father. In his paranoia. He swallowed his first child, despite them being a daughter and not a son. This continued until Zeus was born and the defeat of Kronos was on the horizon. This Kahoot is designed to challenge the general knowledge of those generally interested and force them to think critically about what they’ve learned of the story of Zeus. This challenges the story of Zeus’ heritage, marriage and children, and how he came into power.

  1. Very thoughtful range of questions on Zeus, good summary of the Titans. You could also link your paragraph in. Establishing a good foundation of mythology knowledge.
