Storyboarding our Fairy Tales

Today Room 7 spent some time storyboarding their own stories of Goldilocks and the three bears. They decided to write their own versions and now they are preparing to make them into plays or movies.

They used a storyboard template today to plan in groups. They needed to think about what was happening at the beginning, middle and end. They needed to think about what the characters were doing and saying.

Here are some photos of our planning so far. Please check in again soon to see our progress.

Another update on our floral art!

At this stage we are continuing to use wax crayons to colour in our flower and use a completely different colour for the background. 

 We chose a colour for the background that would suit our other colours that we have already used.

Please keep checking in to see our progress.



An update on our Floral Art

Our next step was to enlarge our original picture to an A3 size. After this we began colouring in our flowers using crayon. 

We used different shades of green individually or we mixed them together to get the right shade.
