Spring 1st Half Term
TOPIC
As part of our Topic this half term we will be looking at Myths and Legends with a particular focus on Theseus and the Minotaur in ancient Greece. We will be researching societies that are well known for their myths and legends and turning mythical characters into comic book super heroes. Furthermore we will be finding out about traditions, celebrations and religious festivals which have been influenced by myths and legends. As part of the children’s learning log task they will be expected to research five different myths and legends from around the world and design their own mythical creature. This should be completed and handed in at the latest by Friday 7th February.
