Today in Year 3, we took part in our hook lesson for this half term's fiction writing.
Our new model text is called Perseus and Medusa which is a well known ancient Greek myth.
We explored the following extract that describes the character of Medusa.
Medusa was a hideous creature, with claw-like hands and tusks for teeth. She was the most fearsome and repulsive monster in the land. Instead of hair, she had venomous snakes that hissed liked angry roaches. She had scaly, brittle skin and blood-shot fiery, eyes like a raging devil. Anyone who made eye contact with her would instantly be turned to stone.
Using this information, we created our own Medusa masks to help us better understand the text.
