Year 5 workshop with Adam Bushnell

Today we worked with Adam Bushnell to create and describe a witchy character after exploring the local legend of Peg Powler, the grindylow who hides in the River Tees.  We read a description of the witch’s cottage and then created our own character using natural resources in our school grounds for inspiration – including mud!!

We wrote some descriptive words and phrases and then used them to do some spooky storytelling with torches.
