The day was spent focusing on developing our understanding of the ideation, creation, reflection & publication processes - with Joe on hand to physically & metaphorically illustrate what this looks like in practice - exploring influences, and NC skills such as editing & revising.
Another amazing day at @clpe1 with @charliehacking & @toddstanton1. Exploring illustration and the processes involved in picturebook creation.
@katehitchings1 @RuddickRichard Few more tickets were released. Same happened to me. I’d been hyping @jonnybid and Richard so much but neglected to pick up a ticket. Thankfully righted.
Feel like we’ll need a bouncer for this workshop! Strict 1 in, 1 out policy. 😉
@TeresaCremin @teachprimarily @Team_English1 @smithsmm There are many already suggested that I would recommend (wordless masters like Wiesner, Tan and Becker). I came across these relatively recently - sure Simon suggested a while ago. Well worth exploring. They’re by @guojingart 👌🏼
@my_red_spark @emmac2603 Amazing illustrations (love the attention to detail). Can’t wait to read what the pupils write after visualising and mapping out each level of the lighthouse.
Reminds me of this haunting picturebook. Will have to lend it to the class to read. A Gary Crews classic!
What an inspirational day spent at @clpe1 w/ the picturebook master, @charliehacking, & illustrator extraordinaire, @toddstanton1. Taking the time to ‘slow look’, introducing chn to the wealth of meaning encoded in pictures & text, exploring creativity with chn. #PowerOfPictures
@ClubPicturebook Graphic novels are so multi-faceted. Multiple plots can converge or diverge from one another. Focal points can change. It takes the tired ‘story mountain’ & flips it completely.
I find that there’s so much potential for visual description & empathetic writing #PrimaryPicBookClub
Many thanks for this @BookIslandBooks - lovely to receive as part of your blog competition.
Exploring lots of wordless texts recently & this has a lovely sense of flow, as though the book is subtly commanding you to turn the page. Great link to the environment, weather & forces.
@MrS_Primary Pretty eclectic mix (Old School Silverchair in there from Rich’s tweet last weekend). Heard there’s so many Steely Dan samples in everything from Kanye to De La Soul.
