Today Y3&4 were treated to a virtual author visit with Bethany Walker. Bethany was inspired to become an author when she was reading books to her own children and has a love of Greek myths and legends. She showed us her book about the character Medusa in her story Medusa Gorgon’s Bad Hair Day. She explained that it takes almost a year to write a book and talked us through the stages including illustrations. Next, we had a draw-along session where we created our own Medusa illustrations which I think look fantastic.

Last week, in Art, we took inspiration from our focus artist Adam Hale. He creates collages using heads of people layered with clippings of newspapers and magazines he finds on the London Underground. Each picture tells a different story. I think you will agree that the children had a good attempt at creating their own images.
