When teaching Year 3 and the topic Ancient Egypt, I always found it difficult to find a myth to fit the topic and the Literacy unit of myths. Then I found a wonderful story from Ancient Egypt (Rhodophis and the Red Rose Slippers). It is the most ancient 'Cinderella' story going with all the elements needed for studying myths. I re-wrote and condensed the myth and added important key features (time connectives etc) and the children learnt and analysed the myth in a Pie Corbett style fashion, drew story-maps, acted it out (videoing and re-playing it). Innovation then followed, making myth cards of settings, characters and special objects. Resources include myth pyramid planning, story-telling text (shorter and display versions).
