The children in Hummingbird class @FP have been reading traditional stories and alternative versions. We read ‘The Three Little Pigs’ and the alternative version ‘The Three Little Wolves’ and ‘The Big Bad Pig’. We wrote our own versions, remembering to use capital letters, spaces and fullstops.  

We also read ‘Goldilocks and the Three Bears’ and the alternative version the ‘Ghanaian Goldilocks’. In this version they ate Fu Fu instead of porridge so we made some Fu Fu and tried it. We then wrote our own story  thinking about the different characters and how traditional stories have three characters, designing our own characters based on our interests.

Finally we read ‘The Gingerbread Man’ and the alternative version ‘The Runaway Chapatti’. 

Do you have any traditional stories that you remember being read as a child?

In Hummingbird class we have been using remote control toys. We have been programming them to move towards our friends.
