During September, 1st Year Classics students have been learning about Greek monsters. Ms Donohoe asked them to create their own monster in 20 minutes. See their work.
1st years have just started learning about some very famous Greek monsters e.g. Medusa, Polyphemus and the Minotaur. After a brief introduction, 1st year Classical Studies students were given a mini Herculean challenge. Each student was asked to create their own monster in twenty minutes. The criteria included naming your monster, drawing an image of your monster and listing its unique abilities. Students then had to present their monster to their peers and each student voted for their favourite.
Congratulations to all of the 1st years who presented such a diverse range of monsters. We were introduced to multi headed, handed, footed, winged creatures. We met monsters that had tails made out of weapons, shape changers, cheer leaders! and many more. My personal favourite was the dancing diva who lured you into her trance by dancing and then you ended up dancing alongside her all the way into the Underworld to discover you were dead.
