Tremendous Trolls

Year 3 spent some of the Autumn term learning the story of the Three Billy Goats Gruff. The "terrible, grumpy troll" is a very gruesome creature! Our topic this half term is Brutal Beasts and Beastly Battles, and what better way to start the term than to make a terrifying troll!

First of all, we thought about some descriptive features a troll might have. Warts, webbed feet, talons, horns and spines were some of our ideas.

Then, we drew sketches of what we thought our trolls might look like.

We finally brought our trolls to life using clay! We learned how to mould the clay, blend it and use clay tools to create effects.
