This engaging and detailed lesson enables students to gain a deep understanding of the Greek Myth ‘Theseus and The Minotaur.’ In doing so, students learn to interpret and infer the key meanings in a myth, analyse the descriptive language in a myth, and use descriptive language to describe their own ancient Greek monster.

The lesson follows a clear, logical, bite-size learning journey, which guides students towards differentiated learning objectives. Over the course of this journey, they become able to:
- Define the key terms ‘adjective’ and ‘synonym’ and use these appropriately and imaginatively to describe an image of the Minotaur;
- Read the story ‘Theseus and The Minotaur’ and interpret the key meanings;
- Identify, understand, and analyse the descriptive language in ‘Theseus and The Minotaur;’
- Apply their understanding of descriptive techniques by creating and describing their own mythical beast, using a model example, a success criteria, and a scaffold;
- Peer assess each other’s descriptive attempts.

This resource pack includes:
- A visually engaging whole-lesson PowerPoint presentation;
- Paper copies and online links to the extract needed for the lesson;
- Understanding Descriptive Language worksheet;
- Creating a Beast Template, and model example;
- A detailed lesson plan, complete with what the teacher and students should aim to achieve at each stage of the lesson.
