Guest Posted April 16, 2005 Posted April 16, 2005 I want to talk a little about St. George with Nursery and Reception. One child has got an outfit and I thought about making buns, putting on white icing with a red cross. Does anyone know where I can find a simple story or pictures - dragon etc. Thanks
AnonyMouse_3307 Posted April 16, 2005 Posted April 16, 2005 National Gallery has a picture in it by Paolo Uccello of george and the dragon. They may have a copy on their website?? I've used it with R for story telling and visual literacy activities. Cx Oh and there's always "the paperbag princess" for a good girl v dragon, girl wins story!!!
AnonyMouse_3307 Posted April 16, 2005 Posted April 16, 2005 you can download it from http://www.takeonepicture.org/picture/previous_stgeorge.html there's also some good notes. Cx
Guest Posted April 17, 2005 Posted April 17, 2005 Our Yr1 teacher spent a day at the National Gallery on a course sponsored by one of their patrons, the subject was this painting of St George - all of the symbolism was explained St George being the personification of Good and his subjugation of evil. They were given lots of ideas for art work, she used box modeling to make dragons.
