A Greek Myth - Re-Imagined KS2 Creative Writing

A Greek Myth - Re-Imagined KS2 Creative Writing

(0)
A Greek Myth Theseus and Hydra Re-imagined Whilst studying Greek myths with Year 5, their task was to write their own version of a Greek myth, using a hero and a monster of their choice. Working with a small group, I created my own Greek myth with the characters of Theseus and the monster Hydra to use as an example of how a myth could be re-imagined – modelling some of the descriptive language and grammatical features and structure that they could use in their own story. This could be used for pupils as an example of how to create their own version of a Greek myth too. Suitable for KS2 - particularly Year 5 and Year 6. This resource is also available as a Powerpoint presentation for ease of use in lessons - see following link https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-12985137

Here is a simple quick to make Easter Egg cross stitch patterns - to use with KS2 pupils, although it may also be suitable for upper years of KS1. The colour cross stitch pattern chart is on a pdf. The eggs can be completed in any colour. Pictures and patterns are a guide only. This has coloured crosses. Each cross is equal to one cross stitch. I have also included some basic cross stitch information/instructions. Would be great to use as front of a Handmade Easter Card or as a lovely framed picture! Finished size of each egg: approx: 5cm x 4cm on 6 count binca. If stitched on 14 count aida, the finished picture will be smaller. The pattern is stitched on 6 count binca material using 6 strands of stranded cotton and a blunt tapestry needle. Here are some further easy to make cross stitch patterns for binca cross stitch fabric. Pictures can be stitched on aida fabric also, but the finished pictures would be smaller: ‘Dream, Hope, Believe, Achieve’ Positive Mind Set Cross Stitch: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-12962781 Christmas Tree Quick Make - Ideal for Card Making: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-12946295 Bees - single Bee and ‘Bee Happy’ picture: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-12959872 Poppy Cross Stitch - Easy make pattern: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-12742390 Collection of Mini Cross Stitch Motifs: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-12692137 Easter Fun Facts Powerpoint/Wordsearch/Word Unscramble Game.
