What is a myth?
This week in Literacy we have started to look at myths. Myths are stories from a long time ago. They are not true! Phew!! Some of the stories we had read have had some pretty scary creatures in them.
We are now focusing on quest myths. A famous quest myth is The Lord of the Rings, a quest to find and destroy a very powerful ring.
After reading a range of myths we identified the main features of a quest myth. We then used these key ingredients to start planning our own quest myths.
We are now refining our ideas and planning our story lines.
In Art this week we have been using black and white to create tints, tones and shades.
It was a little tricky at first as we needed to make sure we were using the right amount of paint while we were mixing.
We had great fun experimenting and we definitely improved throughout the lesson.
We cannot wait to put our new skills to the test with our first design. Stay tuned to see our masterpieces!
