F2 have been reading and learning the story of ‘Goldilocks and the Three Bears!’ 

This week we have created our own signifiers to retell the story and have enjoyed acting out the story using props!

This morning Mrs Buss brought in a magic wand and a magical chair! When we sat on the chair we magically transformed into characters from the traditional tale! We loved meeting and chatting to Goldilocks and Baby Bear and thought of some brilliant questions to ask them. We wanted to know “Why Goldilocks ate all of Baby Bear’s porridge?” and “Did she feel sorry for breaking his chair?” Goldilocks was very sorry and said she would help fix it. We had so much fun getting into character and thinking about the story…

We can’t wait to meet and question some more of the characters this week!

  Today Foundation Stage received a surprise package!

The children were so excited to open it! We guessed what could be inside and who it was from? It had our name and address on?

We opened it to find a GIANT PAIR of TEETH!!! 

This led to lots of discussion about who these teeth belonged to and where they had come from?! Some children suggested perhaps they could belong to their Grandad…but then they were too large! Some perhaps a dragon…but not quite sharp enough! We came to an overall conclusion that they must belong to a GIANT! And that we needed to look after them until he came back to get them. We talked about how we would look after these teeth and how we look after our own!

This led to us finding more GIANT clues later on and going on a GIANT HUNT!

We found some HUGE shoes, a giant shirt, some large socks and some more GIANT teeth hiding in the soil! We had so much fun digging up clues and investigating our outside area to see what we could spot…

Our GIANT journey continued in P.E…we had great fun leaping like a giant and making giant shadows, stretching out wide and reaching out tall!
