Okay. Here’s my idea:
There’s this girl, and she’s mortal. She lives on Earth as an everyday person. One day, she goes out for a bike ride and she comes across this mysterious house with the emblem of Olympus on it (lighting bolt). She she goes in, and the house locks her in. What she finds in a house full of myths and monsters. She comes across Medusa, has a close encounter with the sirens, she meets Achilles or Perseus or Theseus (or some sort of hero), and slays the Menotaur in the mansion’s labyrinth. She’s the only mortal and everything is out to get her–even the gods.
Before you write an epic with greek mythology in it, you must first find your muse.
well first lists some gods you want in it. then right a problem and how to solve it with the god or someone with special pwers
Sounds like your teacher wanted to see Clash of the Titans, and then was disappointed with it! At any rate, I recommend looking up some of the Gods of mythology then utilizing their "domains" to produce your trials. If you want, you could use a more recent nonfiction story as a baseline.
For example, during the dust bowl of the 1930s, you could tell the tale of Whoeverius that was cursed by the Goddess Gaea (The Earth Mother) for slighting her in some way he doesn’t know. The destruction can start where he is, and travel with him as he searches for more fertile land before uncovering that the focus is on him. Use testimonies from Dust Bowl survivors to help you with character development of non-main characters. Lead the story of Whoeverius into him pleading with the Cronus (God of Agriculture and Time) to stop Gaea only to be tasked with impossible tasks before he would agree. Feed the starving he causes, slay the impossible beast, etc. It all has to go seemingly well despite struggles, then come down upon your hero again. So, once he has done these tasks, he should get knocked down with a shocking revelation as to why it happened in the first place. From there you can end it with him righting his wrongs, selflessly sacrificing himself, or drifting through a desert. Whatever! It just has to be grand is the key. Beyond reality.
Another good place for inspiration, Jim Henson’s The Storyteller. There are some great tales in there from a multitude of countries. The Story of the Russian Soldier would be a good example for you.
