WEEK 44 - Norse mythology

PETRA, PAUL

During the Norse mythology classes we worked with two old myths connected with Loki.

GYLFAGINNING

In the first story Loki causes the death of Baldr. Our task was to dramatize the story. We decided to narrate the story and let the other students participate and create still images to present individual parts. We think it could be an interesting way to involve the pupils into the story and give them a chance to think about feeling expressions of the characters of the story.

In the story of the second myth Loki helps Thor to get back his lost hammer. In that case Paul was narrating the whole story because he knows a lot about Norse mythology and is comfortable with a lot of its stories. The other members of our group went through the story in roles creating still images based on what was told at the moment.

We also put some music to emphasise the situation.  Origami We decided to make an origami boat. The main challenge here was trying to...

WEEK 37 - Art project as team building?

Imagen
PETRA This week we spent making different kinds of puppets. It was interesting and also fun to try all those tasks and create something real. But I think the most important thing I have learnt is that you can use an art project as a task for a whole group of students, not only as an individual work.
