This week of Literacy lessons focuses on developing children’s understanding of Greek myths and gives them an opportunity to write a description of their own mythological creature. All of the classes who have been taught this week of Literacy have really enjoyed it, especially the boys!
Day 1: Reading and analysing examples of Greek myths.
Day 2: Creating word banks to describe mythological creatures.
Day 3: Using expanded noun phrases to describe mythological creatures.
Day 4: Creating and planning their own mythological creature (with a bit of drawing included to keep them interested).
Day 5: Children write a written description of their mythical creatures using the skills taught during the week.
