WARSAW MERMAID LEGEND

Students have listened to the Polish legend about a Warsaw Mermaid.

They have identified the main characters.

 

  

 They have created a legend scene with a paper mosaic.

 They have cut some coloured sheets in different sizes.

 

According the legend, a Mermaid swimming in the sea stopped on the riverbank near the Old Town rest.

She liked this place and she decided to stay.

  A local fisherman living nearby noticed her...

Later, a rich merchant trapped the Mermaid and he imprisoned her in a wooden hut.

A young fisherman heard Mermaid's cry and with his mates released her .

The Mermaid promised them to help whenever it would be needed.

Ever since, the Mermaid, armed with sword and shield, has been ready to help and protect the city and its citizens.

THESEUS AND THE MINOTAUR

Minotaur

Let’s build a labyrinth with felt-pens.

 Cnosso Palace planimetry

Ariadne gave a ball of wool to Theseus. He  unrolled it as he was walking in the labyrinth.

 

“You’ll just have to roll it back and you’ll find the way back!”.

 

·      

   Theseus went into the maze and found the Minotaur. They  fought for a long time until Theseus was successful in killing him. After that, he rolled the wool back and  he found his way to exit.

The glorious Theseus sailed away from Crete, immediately. 

But he forgot to hoist the white sail instead of the black one. Aegean, Theseus father, saw the ship with black sail on the horizon and he thought his son was dead. 

He was  hopeless and jumped into the sea around the Greek coast. 

From that day on, that area was called Aegean Sea.
