United Kingdom
The whole school has been working on designs for the monster. We have been reading some monster stories and talking about the character of our monsters. Some of the children have been drawing the monster on the whiteboard after seeing the pictures of the children in Spain drawing monsters they wanted to do the same.
We have drawn, painted and used the PC to create monster pictures. We have let the parents know about the project through our school newsletter and have made contact with the education library about having a display of some of our work there, they are going to help to find monster stories for us to share with the children.
