A learning walk studying Greek myths

In English Year 7 and 8 learners have been studying Greek myths and legends this term.

They have read about various Greek adventures including  Orpheus and Eurydice, Perseus and Medusa, Theseus and the Minotaur, etc.

They have also created their own mythical creature using Latin to create creatures such as Duo caput serpens (two headed snake), Acutus dentes draco (sharp toothed dragon) going on to describe its appearance and its lair. The opportunity to watch short films based on the tales they had read was also given.  Many learners made a model of either Medusa or the Minotaur.

The photographs below take you on a learning walk through these lessons.
