Beowulf and Hercules Language Comparison -KS3

This lesson looks at the Myths Beowulf and Hercules in a comparative way. Students are given an overview of how both heroes can be compared and allows them to look at two extracts exploring how both heroes are presented. Students should analyse the language used to show how each hero is presented as being similar or different. They are then given a grid which enables them to find quotes and write a comparison answer in the style of GCSE.
