A Greek Myth - Re-Imagined KS2 Creative Writing

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.
