Cultural Masks

They are finished -  we think they look magnificent - the question is - can you recognise who is hiding behind the mask?

































Comic Life Sustainability Project

For the past 7 weeks, Room 21 has been lucky enough to have the expertise of Mr Giver in our classroom teaching us about the cool computer programme, Comic Life.

The children have really hooked into this way of presenting information.  It is a neat way for us to show our creative skills. This particular project has been excellent in the development of our attention to detail, our ability to reflect on our work and other people's work too.  Walking around and over-hearing the children's discussions about what their messages are and how they are portraying it have been enlightening.

By the end of next week we should have all have finished and printed out our comics.  I know I can't wait to see them!
