We have read After the Storm by Nick Butterworth this week.

We loved looking at the pictures of the animals in the book. They all looked so sad!

We talked about what a storm is and decided that we could draw a stormy picture. The children laid on their stomachs to develop their core muscles for writing. Look at the big windy movements we made!

We really had to stretch to fill the paper!

After that, we decided to add the stormy clouds by using watercolour paints. We carefully had to mix the water onto the paint. We found that if we added more water, the colour was lighter!

We were so proud of our stormy pictures!
