Topics covering stories, myths, fables, fairytales, and legends never
fail to catch the imagination of children. This CD-ROM focuses
on providing resources to help teach Myths and Legends from many
different cultures and time periods in a fun and engaging way.
Importantly, this book focuses on how to make sure that any project
(from one lesson to a whole week) covers multiple subjects across
the curriculum.
This CD-ROM includes images, video, music, and IWB slideshows covering
the following themes: 1. Myths and legends around the world
(general outline of creatures of myth and legends as established
by different peoples); 2. Places in the story (fantasy lands to
lands where it may have happened); 3. People in the story (good,
bad, fairies, goblins, ghosts); 4. Animals in the story (lions, horses,
monsters); 5. Actions in the story (illustrating various motives
and lessons to be learnt); 6. Ancient Greek myths and legends
(famous stories and characters); 7. The Americas and Africa (examples
of peoples, animals and monsters, and lessons to be learnt);
8. Europe, Asia and Australia (examples of peoples, animals
and monsters, and lessons to be learnt); 9. Local Myths and legends
(using local archives and storytellers)
