Year 6 - World Comic Book Day, by Mrs Harris
Date: 27th Sep 2024 @ 7:58pm
This week was World Comic Book Day. Whilst the rest of the year group was away on residential, we learnt about how comic books have changed over the years and researched famous comic book writers such as Stan Lee. We created our own comic book character, sketched what they would look like and coloured them using bold colours - inspired by Pop Art artists of that time. Once we had designed our character we then used clay to make models of them. We can't wait to paint them when they finally dry!
