Mythology People is a space to get even deeper into your obsession with myths from around the world. Many of you will be fans of Greek, Roman, Egyptian and Norse Mythologies. Maybe you can't stop reading the Percy Jackson books, and other Rick Riordan creations? Here you have a space to learn more with other people who are interested in the same stuff. And the brilliant thing about it being global is that we can learn from each other too - maybe we have some experts on Korean, Japanese, Igbo, Australian, Polynesian and Celtic Mythologies too? We are a group for World Mythology and we are the world mythologists! "So what will we do?!", I hear you SHRIEKING like an enraged Valkyrie. We will share myths and stories we have been discovering. We can share links to podcasts, and talk about books we've been reading. We will debate the big questions like "Why Is Loki So Annoying?", and "Who Would Win In A Fight Between Athena and Artemis?". We can share updates about the Ancient World, such as when archaeologists make new discoveries. We can share memes and jokes that we've created. As well as sharing stuff, my main job here is as a Moderator, making sure that we are all feeling happy, safe and included. I’ll be checking in on things that are posted and joining in with your conversations. You will be able to share and connect with the people in this world who share your interest in the world of Myths. In the class you can ask questions, debate, joke around and share your own creative projects. Write your own myths? Share! Perform a musical instrument? Share like Apollo! Like to act? Then let us be your theatre! But the most important people in the group are you, Mythology People. This is a space for you to chat, make friends and dive deeper into the never-ending Tartarus pit of Mythology. It is the perfect place for you to meet other young writers, thinkers and creators, and you can share your own stories, poems, artwork and videos here too. You are very welcome :D
Learning Goals
We will all deepen our love of mythology, and our knowledge.
We will all take part in a fun and respectful mixed-age community of myth fans aged between 8-14.
Other Details
Parental Guidance
Mythology often contains themes of violence, and these are unavoidable but will always be handled sensitively and in an age-appropriate manner. If your child is averse to stories of blood and so on, they may not be a good fit for the class.
All talk and sharing will be at a level that is age appropriate for all of the learners in our potential range of 8-14. Younger learners will have the chance to learn from older learners, and all talk will be sensitively moderated.
Language of Instruction
English
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I am a highly experienced teacher of students in this age range.
On Outschool, I have been successfully running two ongoing classes, with students in this age range. One is explicitly social - and it is the ongoing version of Odd Behaviours - and the other is academic, but with a rich social element.
In schools in East London, I am currently a specialist English teacher, working on inclusive projects that combine social and academic learning. These projects include residential poetry retreats with children aged 9 to 11- on these trips, I bring students together who do not know each other from different schools, and facilitate warm and lively learning communities.
