  6. 2. Topic: beasts & monsters 8 volunteers to be monsters, rest of you are 'sorters', sorting into following categories: Explaining behaviour/phenomena Controlling other people Teaching a moral lesson Confront deepest fears

  7. 2. Topic: beasts & monsters We are the Taraxippi. You can’t see us, you can’t hear us, but we are the ghosts who spook your horses when we least expect it. I am a mermaid. I was spotted by the crew of a sailing ship that had been at sea for eighteen months, had very little to eat or drink, and, quite frankly, hadn’t seen a woman in a year and a half.

  8. 2. Topic: beasts & monsters I am Polyphemos the Cyclops. I don’t like company and I certainly don’t give a warm welcome to strangers. I am also a little bit on the stupid side but I make up for it by whacking everyone I see. I, Jabba, was powerful and mighty and all around me did my bidding. I ended up suffering one of the grisliest fates in the universe.

  9. 2. Topic: beasts & monsters I am Mormo. As I'm sure your parents have told you, if you're naughty, I'll come and get you in the dead of night. I am Father Christmas. If you’re good, you’ll get plenty of presents. But if you’re naughty, you’ll get nothing.

  10. 2. Topic: beasts & monsters I am Medusa the Gorgon. I’m actually quite beautiful, despite having snakes for hair, but if you dare to look at me, you will turn to stone. I may also viciously kill you. I was just driving through the forest when I saw a bright light in the sky. I got out to have a closer look and I saw a UFO hovering in the sky. It somehow pulled me up in its beam. Next thing I remember clearly was lying on the forest floor. I don't know what happened but I have a sense of being watched by strange creatures – grey, big eyes.

  11. 3. Language: present tense verbs L.O. • understanding of function of present tense in English and Latin • Recognise 3rd person sing & plural terrminations When? Now! In English = (1) I talk (2) I am talking In Latin – look at the end of the word for a 't' or 'nt'
