This week we have been learning about Commonwealth Mascots. On Monday and Tuesday with Mr Cook we designed a Commonwealth Mascot for Inverness, using the theme of ‘Nessie’.

In our writing we used describing words to describe our mascot. Mr Cook was really impressed with WOW Words like gigantic, instead of big. We used our words to build our own sentences.

On Wednesday and Thursday with Mrs Skelton and Mrs Sutherland we turned our designs into ‘real’ mascots, using lots of different materials. We think they look brilliant. What do you think?

Mr.Cook

This week we have begun creating our display for the 50th Anniversary – based on The Magic Roundabout. We wanted to show the light blue and white colours the programme uses as a background, using different materials and techniques. We have done sponge printing with paint, mosaic building with card, paper and felt and pattern creating using crayon.

The next stage will be to design our titles and characters. We’ll keep you updated – watch this space.
