This is a Language Arts and research unit of work written for students around the themes of Dragons and Medieval times. The unit has numerous activities that will appeal to various age groups, as individual tasks, group activities, extension, as a book of work to be completed etc. I have tried to arrange the activities around two short stories that I have written, A Dragon’s Tale! and A Knight’s tale!. The second story is a spin-off from events in the first.

I have tried to balance language and research activities in this unit.

This unit Dragon & Medieval Themed Unit is in its entirety of 74 pages of work.
