  • The Integration of Mythical Creatures in the Harry Potter Series
    University of Hawai‘i at Hilo HOHONU 2015 Vol. 13 orange eyes. (Stone 235) Harry's first year introduces the The Integration of Mythical traditional serpentine dragon, something that readers Creatures in the Harry Potter can envision with confidence and clarity. The fourth year, however, provides a vivid insight on the break Series from tradition as Harry watches while “four fully grown, Terri Pinyerd enormous, vicious-looking dragons were rearing onto English 200D their hind legs inside an enclosure fenced with thick Fall 2014 planks of wood, roaring and snorting—torrents of fire were shooting into the dark sky from their open, fanged From the naturalistic expeditions of Pliny the mouths, fifty feet above the ground on their outstretched Elder, to the hobbit's journey across Middle Earth, necks” (Goblet 326). This is a change from the treasure the literary world has been immersed in the alluring hoarding, princess stealing, riddle loving dragons of presence of mythical and fabulous creatures. Ranging fantasy and fairy tales; these are beasts that can merely from the familiar winged dragon to the more unusual be restrained, not tamed.

  • Make Your Own Lion and Unicorn Puppets
    Scotland’s historic properties feature lots of lions and unicorns – they’re in Scotland’s royal coat of arms. Lions were thought to represent bravery and strength – the king of the animal world. The unicorn has been a Scottish royal symbol for around 600 years and – believe it or not – is Scotland’s national animal. Unicorns symbolised innocence and power. People considered them wild and untamed, so they’re often shown chained around their neck. When James VI of Scotland unified Scotland and England in 1603, he changed his coat of arms to include one unicorn and one lion either side of a shield. TOP TIPS FOR MAKING YOUR PUPPETS This activity ideally needs a printer and some brass paper fasteners. If you don’t have a printer, why not use the templates as inspiration for drawing your own versions! And if you don’t have paper fasteners (split pins), you could experiment with tying a big knot in some string or wool, threading the string through a small hole in your papers (a hole punch would create too big a hole) and tying another big knot on the other side. If you’ve got beads or buttons you could also use these to secure the wire/string/wool either side of the paper body parts you’re attaching together. The lion that greets The unicorn from visitors arriving at the King’s Fountain Edinburgh Castle. at Linlithgow Palace. Resource created for Historic Environment Scotland by artist Hannah Ayre. 1.

CONTACT [email protected] Drag Drop Learning on Teachers Pay Teachers Drag Drop Learning Website ILLUSTRATIONS All images used under license from Dreamstime.com. COPYRIGHT © 2018 Kim White Steele - All rights reserved. Permission to copy for single classroom use only. Not for public display. Directions Most everyone is probably familiar with how to play traditional American bingo. Each player is given a game board with numbers appearing in a 5 x 5 grid. When using bingo as a classroom game the numbers are usually replaced with words and/or images, giving students a chance to review vo- cabulary, spelling and facts while having fun. Sometimes the grids may be smaller or larger, making the game easier or harder depending on students’ needs. Whoever is calling the game randomly selects a number, word, or image and all players look for that item on their board. If that item appears on their board, the player covers the item with a chip. (You can also use pennies or just about any small item as a marker.) After everyone covers their square if they need to, another randomly selected item is announced and the game continues. The first player to cover a column, row, or diagonal, calls out “Bingo!” and wins the game. You can also decide ahead of time to use differ- ent patterns to determine the winner (such as all corners or inside squares). The great thing about bingo in the classroom is that it is a flexible game.

It has baffled scholars for decades. These tapestries are shrouded in mystery, especially considering their commissioner, narratives, and sequence of hanging. However, for whom and how they were made is of little importance for this study. The most crucial question to be asked is: why the unicorn? What was the significance of the unicorn during the late Middle Ages? The goal of this thesis is to explore the evolution of the unicorn throughout the Middle Ages as well as important monarchal figures and central themes of aristocratic society during the period in which the tapestries were woven.

  • Of Griffins, Lions, and Unicorns: Zymurgical Heraldry in Britain and Abroad
    Of Griffins, Lions, and Unicorns: Zymurgical Heraldry in Britain and Abroad by Lynn Pearson The histories of beer, brewing, and heraldry have many interconnections. Heraldic imagery concerned with beer and brewing is first seen in the medieval era and has continued to appear in literary, architectural, and artistic contexts right up to the present day, where it makes an important contribution to our visual culture. Beer-related architectural imagery also has a significant presence in the public realm, but despite this has generally passed unnoticed by researchers. The broad technical term for the heraldry of beer is zymurgical heraldry, from zymurgy, the branch of chemistry that deals with fermentation by yeast. Thus zymurgical heraldry is the heraldry of beer and brewing, although it can of course also refer to the heraldry of wine and vinification: some work on heraldic sources of wine bottle label imagery has recently been carried out in the USA (and its effectiveness is considered in Daniel McCabe’s essay in this volume).1 The term ‘zymurgical heraldry’ made its initial appearance in 2007, in a lecture given in New York which largely concentrated on beer-bottle label collecting (labology).2 The entry for zymurgical heraldry in the Oxford Companion to Beer (2012) promotes this interpretation and application.3 Along with work on inn signs and analysis of the arms of the Brewers’ Company, zymurgical heraldry has otherwise been little noticed. This is curious, since heraldic symbolism can be found throughout the brewing world, usually in the form of elements such as a supporter or crest, and sometimes a shield or motto, rather than a complete achievement.

  • Dragon and Unicorn Games Outdoor Activity
    Dragon and Unicorn Outdoor Games and Activities Find a big outdoor space like a playing field, park, beach or large garden and try some of these dragon- and unicorn-themed games. Rainbow Run You will need different colours of craft sand or coloured sugar, one colour per player. Each player will also need two bowls and a teaspoon. Set one lot of bowls in a line and fill each with a different colour of sand or sugar. Place the other bowls at an agreed distance away. Each player must take teaspoons of the sand and run with them to the other bowl, the aim of the game being to get all the sand from the first bowl to the second. The winner can be the one who empties the bowl first, or the one who gets the most sand to the second bowl (you can check using a measuring jug!). A great game to play individually, or as a relay in teams. Capture the Treasure To play this game, you will need one player to be the dragon and the rest to be the knights. Stake two flags in the ground, so that they are a short distance apart from one another. This is the entrance to the tower. Place some ‘treasure’ (a ball, toy, pile of pebbles) a short distance behind the tower’s entrance while the dragon stands in front of it. The dragon’s job is to prevent the knights from entering the tower to take the treasure. Give the dragon a water pistol or a bucket of water balloons.

  • Animal Creatures and Creation
    Curriculum Units by Fellows of the Yale-New Haven Teachers Institute 1998 Volume II: Cultures and Their Myths Universal Myths and Symbols: Animal Creatures and Creation Curriculum Unit 98.02.05 by Pedro Mendia-Landa Mythology and mythological ideas permeate all languages, cultures and lives. Myths affect us in many ways, from the language we use to how we tell time; mythology is an integral presence. The influence mythology has in our most basic traditions can be observed in the language, customs, rituals, values and morals of every culture, yet the limited extent of our knowledge of mythology is apparent. In general we have today a poor understanding of the significance of myths in our lives. One way of studying a culture is to study the underlying mythological beliefs of that culture, the time period of the origins of the culture’s myths, the role of myth in society, the symbols used to represent myths, the commonalties and differences regarding mythology, and the understanding a culture has of its myths. Such an exploration leads to a greater understanding of the essence of a culture. As an elementary school teacher I explore the role that mythology plays in our lives and the role that human beings play in the world of mythology. My objective is to bring to my students’ attention stories that explore the origins of the universe and the origins of human kind, and to encourage them to consider the commonalties and differences in the symbols represented in cross-cultural universal images of the creation of the world. I begin this account of my unit by clarifying the differences between myth, folklore, and legend, since they have been at times interchangeably and wrongly used.
