This week was 1AS's turn to make their magical birds.
Using images of British birds as inspiration, they began by trying out drawing in their sketchbooks. They used pencil, black fineliners and some children coloured their sketches with oil pastels.

They took the parts they liked from the bird images to create thier own birds. They also thought about what magical powers their bird might have....

These sketches were great. The children then went on to transfer their favourite sketch to the A3 paper.
There were some fantastic ideas - some birds could talk,
some could change size, from tiny to huge, so that they could never be captured, and one was a princess that could
change into a bird!
We used oil pastels and watercolour washes to create the fabulous plumage (feathers) on their magical birds...
Well done 1AS the birds look wonderful!
