このクラスで学べること

米国の学年 4 - 7
8 lessons//8 Weeks
 Week 1
Lesson 1
Western Europe: Faeries, Changelings and 'Long Flag'
Using stories from the British Isles, Belgium and across Western Europe, we explore the unusual tricks of the fairies. They are very much not the Disney fairies ... it is much weirder than that. We also learn about Lange Wapper, a Flemish trickster hero.
 Week 2
Lesson 2
Ancient Greek Tricksters: Hermes, Eris, Dionysus
We dive deep into Greek Mythology, looking at Hermes - the most famous of the Greek trickster gods- as well as looking at some others who might also be called tricksters. Expect tortoises to be turned into musical instruments.
 Week 3
Lesson 3
The Trickster Teacher of the Islamic World: Mulla Nasruddin
This lesson is focused on the wonderful figure of Mulla Nasruddin/Nasredin/Hodja, whose stories are found in Turkey, Iraq, along the Silk Road, and across the Islamic world. Mulla Nasruddin is known as the Wise Fool, and we will enact some of his short stories and lessons. The stories of Nasruddin manage to be silly and inspiring in equal measure.
 Week 4
Lesson 4
The Webs of West Africa: Anansi the Spider
We look at the many stories of Anansi/Ananse, which are told worldwide, and especially in the mythologies and storytelling cultures of West Africa and the Caribbean. Anansi manages to always get what Anansi wants, with smarts, deception and a very healthy appetite.
 Week 5
Lesson 5
The Tricksters of Japan: Tanuki, Kitsune, Jiraiya
We travel to Japan, where we meet some strange and wonderful tricksters, including Tanuki, who will share his life lessons with us. In learrning about the kitsune, we will introduce the world mythologies of foxes.
 Week 6
Lesson 6
Fox Pranx: Medieval French Trickery
This lesson focuses on Reynard the Fox, whose exploits were at one time one of the most popular stories in Europe. How does the lowly Fox manage to use his cunning to outsmart and outmanouevre the whole of the animal kingdom. Lots of acting in this one.
 Week 7
Lesson 7
Meet the Modern Tricksters
In this lesson, we move to the modern day and explore what tricksters might look like in our modern world and in real life. We explore famous characters from animation, games and fiction, and consider whether these characters fit the definition as tricksters. We look at artists and their relationship with tricksterdom.
 Week 8
Lesson 8
Learning Lessons from the Tricksters
In this final lesson, we are visited by none other than LOKI, who invites us to reflect on his army of tricksters. We ask what we can learn from the tricksters - whilst we might not want to become Tanuki or Mulla Nasruddin, do they have valuable life lessons that we could draw upon? There is a VERY DRAMATIC SECRET revealed at the end.
Students will deepen their knowledge of the anthropological concept of the Trickster
They will learn about the similarities and differences between tales from a range of world mythologies
They will develop the skills of self-reflection, applying the stories to their own lives
I am a primary-trained teacher with 11 years experience. I work in UK schools as a specialist mythology and poetry educator, and have 2+ years experience teaching rich, intellectual and accessible mythology lessons on Outschool. My experience as a specialist educator enables me to confidently and skilfully manage the complex dynamics of rich, discussion-based classes with mixed-age and mixed-ability groups.
None
Mythology often invites open and reflective discussion about big universal themes, such as life and death. Tales often have violent edge to them. As I do in all of my classes, I use my 11+ years of professional judgement to frame the lessons in ways that feel safe and fully age-appropriate.
