Baby he was locked
inside a coffin and
sent out to sea
land on island a
fisherman " Dictys"
takes care of him
like a grandfarther
Dictys brother King
Seriphors wanted to
marry Perseus's mother
but he rebelled the king
said if she brough back
medusas head he would
not marry her mother
Went on a quest to free his
mother got given leather
sandals and golden sickle
for help from the Gods
Athene and Hermes
He went to see "The Graiae" ( the witches with1
eye ) he bribed the witches for information about
how to kill her and told him vital information and
that if they he was going to sucseed he would
need the magic bag kept by the Nymps
So he flew over to the Island were
the nymphs lived. They gave
Perseus the magic bag and also a
cap witch when worn you became
invisable
He reached Medusa's
temple and went inside
he touched medusa
blood which is poisoners
but realises the way to
defeat her is through his
reflection off his shield.
So he turns around still
looking through his shield
and chops her head of.
He placed the head inside
the Magic Bag.
But that wasn't the
end he was chased by
Medusas sisters and
new they would never
stop hunting for
Perseus and his
family
As he was returning home
and saw the sight of a
woman "Adromeda" who
was tied up against the
rocks he freed her by using
Medusa head to turn the
monster to stone. They
eventualy got married
He returned home and
gave his gift to the King

so he opened the bag
and he became trapped
inside his own stone

My Opinion on
Actions where the
right or wrong (P.E.E)
Wrong
didn't think
about what his
mother might
have wanted
What did
Medusa do to
deserve to die
Right
trying to protect
his mother
Slayed the most
feared creature
Saved a Woman in danger
Defeat the horrible king
and do what perhaps was
right
Only killed badyes not
unnecessary people
why he could be
a role model (P.E.E)
stood up for what he
believed in about his mother
Showed not to give up
Find a solution to a problem
Help strangers in need
loves his family
shows respect
Best moral and effect (P.E.E)
Moral was fear can
make people act
differently to how
usally they behave
