Yesterday I told the story of the World Tree, Yggdrasil.
It was the opening lesson for our next project which is Norse Mythology.
I told about the Gods and the Giants, and about the Nine worlds that you can find in Yggdrasil.
The costume is a type of Viking Age clothing for women. A costume I actually have worn at a Viking festival in my hometown, some years back. Oh my, when I think about it - it's 16 years ago!!! Well, the outfit still fits! I'm glad I could use it again to make the lesson a little more interesting and authentic.
I think they all thought the story was quite interesting and exciting and I'm looking forward to working on this project with the students.
