Mythical Creature: Option 3

Getting Creative with Myths and Legends

Option 3:

Task Description- For the 3rd option of the Myths and Legends task we had to create an image of a mythical creature, hero or villain. I chose to make a mythical creature which is a dragon I made up on my own. Her name is Mystic,  Mystic is a rainbow breathing dragon that has the power to turn things into gold with her special eyes. Mystic's symbol is the 4 leaf clover, she has a rainbow tummy and blue mixed with purple scaly body. I got this idea from the leprechauns, ENJOY!

Myths & Legends: Option 1

Getting Creative with Myths & Legends

Option 1:

Task Description- For our social study task this week Mrs Tele'a gave us heaps of options to work on that all relate to Myths and Legends. For option 1 we had to write an epic tale, myth or legend. We have to create the bad guy, hero and the plot. It could be short or long, here is the tale I wrote. It is a tale about dragons, sisters, royalty and much more. This tale also teaches a moral that every person must remember. I know what it is like to not be jealous of other people and their stuff but we all have to do the right thing. 

I'll be posting more of the different options for this soon.

ENJOY!!

Myths and Legends Passport

Over the past few weeks in Term 3 our Topic in Team 5 is Myths and Legends. We have been doing rotations and going to each class learning new Myths and Legends by each Teacher. To show our learning we had this passport that holds key learning from each class. My favourite myth so far is the Cambodian one: Thunder, Lightning and Rain. Learning myths from different countries is something I really enjoy doing, learning different and new things each day at school is really fun. Thank You Teachers!

For our quick Inquiry task we had to complete a Myths and Legends similar and difference chart. The two stories I chose are Dragon's Eye Lake (Croatia Myth) and Table Mountain (South Africa). ENJOY!! :)

Dragon's Eye Lake

Dragon's Eye Lake

Today is our 1st rotation for our Inquiry Lessons. I'm in Mrs Tele'a Class (a.k.a my home class). Mrs Tele'a taught us a very cool myth, it is also a romantic myth that comes from Croatia. It is about a dragon who looks after a land but in return the village people have to give the dragon 1 girl to marry each day. After reading about the myth, Mrs Tele'a told us to make a poster about the myth she has just read to us.
