Mount of Joy Project

In Canto I, Dante awoke to find himself off of the "path of life" and  lost in a depressing forest. He had no hope until the sun rose, and then he could see the Mount of Joy, representing his life long goal. He headed toward it, only to thwarted by three beasts (a panther, lion and wolf), representing his obstacles. He retreated backward and ran into a ghost, Virgil, who became his guide.

For the Mount of Joy project, you will draw and label the following:

Mountain - Label according to YOUR goal
Beasts - Label according to YOUR obstacles
Sun - What gives you hope?
Forest - What depresses you?
Ghost - Who is your guide?
