Finn MacCool and the Giant's Causeway

The Fairy Flag of McLeod

Your teacher will give you a post it for you to note down some new words or phrases that you like so we can use them in our own legend writing. 

 

Can you see what kind of features these legend stories all have in common?

Let's share our ideas about the texts.
