Nature of early Roman myth
One might almost say that the archaic Romans did not have myths. That is to say: until their poets began to borrow from Greek models in the later part of the Republic , the Romans had no sequential narratives about their gods comparable to the Titanomachy or the seduction of Zeus by Hera What the Romans did have, however, were:

The Mythology of Jupiter
The planets and moons in our solar system are all named for characters in Greek and Roman mythology. We've gathered here some of the stories written about the namesakes of Jupiter and the Galilean satellites, along with artwork inspired by these stories. Be forewarnedthese stories aren't always for the faint of heart!
JUPITER
Jupiter (or Jove, but known as Zeus to the Greeks) overthew his Father Saturn (in Greek, Cronus). He then drew lots with his brothers Poseidon and Hades to determine who would be the supreme ruler of the gods. Jupiter won the draw and became the ruler of Olympus and the patron of the ancient Roman state. Jupiter was the rain god and lord of the sky, making his name an appropriate one for the king of the planets. His weapon is a thunderbolt which he hurls at those who displease him. He is married to Hera but, is famous for his many affairs. He is also known to punish those that lie or break oaths. This Statue of Zeus (Jupiter) was created by the famous Greek sculptor Pheidius during the 5th century B.C. It was considered one of the 7 wonders of the ancient world. The statue stood for over 800 years in the temple of Zeus at Olympia in Greece, until the Roman Emperor Theodosius I proclaimed Christianity the state religion, and ordered all statues and likenesses of the pagan gods torn down.

Encyclopedia - Roman mythology
Roman mythology is the set of beliefs, rituals, and other observances concerning the supernatural held or practiced by the ancient Romans from early periods until Christianity finally completely supplanted the native religions of the Roman Empire The original religion of the early Romans was so modified by the addition of numerous and conflicting beliefs in later times, and by the assimilation of a vast amount of Greek mythology , that it cannot be reconstructed precisely. Because extensive changes in the religion had already taken place before the literary tradition began, its origins were in most cases unknown to the early Roman writers on religion, such as the 1st century BC scholar Marcus Terentius Varro . Other classical writers, such as the poet Ovid in his Fasti (Calendar), were strongly influenced by Hellenistic models, and in their works they frequently employed Greek beliefs to fill gaps in the Roman tradition.

The Mythology of Ancient Rome
What were the origins of the Roman religion ? In the three centuries between the death of Alexander and the birth of Augustus, the literature, art and architecture of Greece and Rome became so closely allied that in early Roman mythology nothing other than Greek is on the surface. But the the origins of Roman religion were quite different. The destinies of the two peoples only came together in their mature stages.

78. Roman & Greek Mythology Lesson Plan
Lesson Plan for Teaching Greek and roman mythology.
http://forumancientcoins.com/forvm/Articles/Roman_and_Greek_Mythology_Lesson_Pla
Mrs. Sarah J. O'Neil FIRST OBJECTIVE As the myths are being introduced over a five week study I will have the students do the following: 1. Maintain a list of the vocabulary introduced (I will hand out individual notebooks to the students for this task). 2. Prepare lists of gods and heroes. 3. Prepare list of characteristics and symbols each god or hero listed is associated with. 4. Look up definition of words that have to do with Greek and Roman mythology, as well as, those the individual student might need in order to better understand the material introduced. 5. Oral as well as silent reading will take place. 6. Find ways of using new vocabulary in their writing or their speech. They will be asked to write three sentences each day in their notebooks. Each sentence needs to include one or more new vocabulary words. SECOND OBJECTIVE I will try to improve the language comprehension skills in my students. The fact is, very often myths have a message to convey. When the student comes in contact with myths, his/her understanding of the content will be more complete, because the information received might very well be within the student's frame of reference or background. Most of the comprehension skills are developed through constant analytical questioning, but I will place special attention on the timing of the questions. My students will be prepared to delve and explore into the myths when he/she has acquired familiarity with the vocabulary as well as a general understanding of myths. Thus, the second objective is to reinforce or develop comprehension skills through the introduction of Greek and Roman mythology readings (Although this study emphasizes the Labors of Heracles, the reader has been provided with bibliographical references that will introduce him or her to a wealth of information.).
