Bellerophon and Pegasus.
E. Discussion
So kindly bring out the handout that I
gave to you.
Genka read the first part.

(The class will follow the instruction)

Sir, as you can see, we have a picture of

a man riding in a winged horse.
Sir based on the picture, they are going
to somewhere else.
Sir as you can see there is a man riding
on a horse and a creature was stubbed.
Sir, I think the man and horse is fighting
with that creature and fortunately they
killed it.

In the city of Corinth, Glaucus is King. But the

gods dislike him because he feeds his horses
human flesh. Eventually the gods throw him
from his chariot and have his horses eat him. It
is thought that Glaucus's son is a beautiful
young man named Bellerophon, but it is also
rumored that the boy's father is Poseidon.
More than anything, Bellerophon wants
to ride Pegasus, a winged horse, so he goes to

Stop. Kagome please continue.

Luffy, continue.

Inuyasha, continue.

Garp, read the last part.

So class, did you understand the story?

Athena's temple to pray. Athena comes to him

in a dream and gives him a golden bridle
which, she says, will take the horse. It does,
and Pegasus becomes Bellerophon's loyal
beast.
Later, Bellerophon kills his brother
entirely by accident. He goes to
King Proteus for purification, which the king
grants. But Bellerophon's situation becomes
complicated when the king's wife takes an
interest in him. Bellerophon denies the queen's
advances, but the evil woman tells her husband
that the boy has wronged her and must die.
Proteus does not want to kill Bellerophon
personally because the boy has eaten at his
table, so instead he asks the boy to deliver a
letter to the Lycian king.
On the back of Pegasus, Bellerophon
travels easily, meets the Lycian king, and stays
with him for nine wonderful days. When the
king opens his letter, it has clear instructions to
kill Bellerophon. But like Proteus, the Lycian
king does not want to offend Zeus by acting
violently towards a guest, so instead he sends
Bellerophon on an impossible journey to kill a
monster, Chimaera. With the help of Pegasus,
however, Bellerophon kills the beast with no
harm to himself. He returns to Proteus, and
Proteus sends him on many more challenging
adventures.
Eventually, the victorious Bellerophon
wins Proteus's respect, and the king even gives
the man his daughter's hand in marriage.
Unfortunately, Bellerophon loses favor with
the gods when he attempts to become more
than human and take a place on Mount
Olympus. When he tries to take the journey up
to the gods kingdom, Pegasus throws
Bellerophon off his back. Bellerophon wanders
alone, "devouring his own soul," until he dies.

So Sanji, what kind of animal is Pegasus?

So does anyone of you know how this
Pegasus came to this world?
So Robin kindly read this one

Pegasus becomes Zeus's favorite animal,

residing in the stalls of Mount Olympus and
bringing thunder and lightning to him.
Yes Sir!
Sir, he is a winged horse.
No sir.

Thank you Robin, so Pegasus just came

from the droplets of Medusa when she
was killed by Perseus.
Then why does King Proteus sent
Bellerophon to King Iobates?
Yes Ussop?

Okay well said Ussop.

Did King Iobates kill Bellerophon?
Then what does he do? Yes Rayleigh?
Did Bellerophon killed the Chimera?
Yes Chopper?
So it seems that you really did
understand the story well.
F. Enrichment Activity
So class Ill give you 15 minutes to make
your own analysis on what happened to
Bellerophon after Zeus stinged Pegasus.
You can make a poem, illustrate or a
song. Just choose from those three that I
have mentioned.
G. Valuing
Class in the story, what does it teach
you?
Yes Franky?

Well said Franky. Class remember what

Jame 4:10 says, Humble yourself in the
sight of the Lord and he shall lift you up.

The Birth of Pegasus

Perseus killed the monster, Medusa, by
beheading her. The drops of blood of Medousa
mixed with the white foam of the sea and
Pegasus was born. He leaped out of her head,
as a beautiful white horse with wings.

Sir, King Proteus wants to kill Bellerophon

because of the statement of his wife wo he sent
Bellerophon to King Iobates for King Iobates
to kill him.
No sir.
Sir he sent him to kill Chimera a monster that
is made up of a head of goat and a lion and a
snake.
Yes sir.

(Students will make their own analysis)

Sir the story teaches us to always

humble ourselves that whatever or
wherever we are, we should always keep
our feet on the ground. Dont aim too

H. Evaluation
So kindly bring out your pen and answer
the following.
I. Generalization
So class before we end up our lesson for
today, what we had again today?

failure comes, its too hard or its too
painful when we are drag down.

(The students will do the quiz)

Very Good Kazuma.
Another? Yes Kai?
Well said Kai.
