Who doesn't love a great story?
The Year 1 boys engaged in a myriad of wonderful experiences during the unit of inquiry, 'How We Express Ourselves'. In particular, the boys were transfixed last week, when illustrator extraordinaire James Foley visited their classroom. With the nurturing and skilful guidance of James, the boys concocted a magical, sensitive Viking that even the likes of James hadn't drawn before. James' superior skill of drawing brought to life a magical Viking with rainbows sprouting from the sides of his enormous steely helmet, which was adorned with a unicorn horn and then accentuated by a halo of sparkling stars. He was aptly named, Neon Pegasus! James thoughtfully showed his childhood books to the boys and encouraged the boys to become emerging authors and illustrators. After an inspiring session, I believe he already has!
