Notes to Teacher

You may wish to stick to a single defi nition of myth as it applies to
this domain—A myth is a fi ctional story from the ancient times that
tries to explain events or things in nature. A myth may also teach a
lesson. A myth usually has characters that are gods or goddesses,
humans, and creatures.
