Animal Puppets

To prepare for our ABL sessions this term, the children have been busy designing and creating their own animal puppets.

We explored different materials, practised cutting and joining skills, and talked about how to bring characters to life through movement and expression. Each child chose an animal, planned their design, and then created a puppet they’ll use throughout the term.

These puppets will become the stars of our very own puppet shows, where the children will work together to tell stories, use expressive language, and develop confidence in performing.

They are already excited to begin!

Designing onomatopoeia words in Pop Art style

We learned how artists like Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein used bold colours, dramatic shapes and dynamic text to bring energy and movement into their artwork. Inspired by their style, the children created their own onomatopoeia words such as BAM!, POW!, POP! and WHAM!
