This week we learned about fables. A fable is short story containing a moral (A story with a lesson). First of all, we watched a video of the fable ‘The Lion and the Mouse’. The moral in this story is don’t judge a book by it’s cover. We also listened to the story ‘The Boy who Cried Wolf’ where we learned that honesty is the best policy.
In writing, we worked hard to create our own fables. We had to include; a short story with a moral, a good character and a foolish character, a setting, a problem and a solution.
Next week we are going to re-draft our story then read it to our buddies.
In art we examined the work of Quentin Blake-the illustrator of Roald Dahl books. We noticed that Quentin Blake likes to draw with lines using ink and then uses water colour to bring his illustrations to life. He does this very quickly.
We had a go at creating our own images using Quentin’s style. We were very pleased with the results and our work will look amazing on display.
