Jack and the Beanstalk

This week Red Class have been exploring the story of Jack and the Beanstalk.  They have been listening out for all the rhyming words in the version of the book we have been using.

On Friday we started to make a story map of Jack and the Beanstalk. We talked about how the story started and put all the different parts of the story in the correct order. We managed to get Jack to the door of the giant's castle.....
The wonderful thing about writing together is that the children then want to have a go independently so soon there were lots of beanstalks and lots of writing and drawing in Red Class.

 Here is a link to our Where's the Monkey positional language song.

Where's Grandma?

The children have taken on the role of detectives this week. On Monday when they went into assembly our classroom became a crime scene! The children had to find pieces of evidence and piece them all together. They discovered that Little Red Riding Hood's Grandma had gone missing, oh no!!

Today after assembly the children found footsteps which led up to our cupboard. Had they found Grandma?

Emma, our special helper, opened the door and there was Grandma and she had treats in her basket to share.  Well done Red Class for being super detectives.
