This week for year 4

This week in year 4 we have been making comic strips and it has been based on Matilda. Also in art we have been doing illumanatedted letters.The illuminated letters are like drop caps but much bigger.In the past they had to use a sheeps skin for paper and a birds feather, they had to use the end of the feather after each word and they had to dip it in ink as well.It also will take lots of hours to write a big book.In our comic strips it was based on Matilda and we had to include speech bubbles , thought bubbles and light bulbs.
