Helen introduced the pupils of year 3 to some myths about weather gods and goddesses by reading out the stories and legends that are associated with Thor, god of thunder in Norse mythology. Chac/ Tlaloc, Mexican rain god and Helios the Roman Sun God.
Using their sketch books they imagined what the gods might have looked like and then exploring ways of mark making used charcoal and graphite to produce their own versions of weather Gods and Goddesses.
The works produced were incredibly expressive and full of vigour and emotion.
