Before reading a story, with the afternoon children, called “Jack Frost” we talked about what Jack Frost might look like. The children found it tricky to think about something that they had never seen but they did well to come up with these ideas.
Joshua H: he’s black and white and green. At night time the dark frost comes leaking and he sees it then he gets back to bed.
Ethan: he’s got a hat. He’s red.
Vinnie: he’s got a top. I guess it’s blue.
Owen: he frosts everything. He looks like icy. He’s small ‘cause you can’t see him. He eats ice.
Harvey M: he puts frost on people’s cars
Neve: he’s white. He’s like a snowman.
Eli: it’s white. He’s big and he has arms and has a carrot and some stones. He looks like a snowman.
Kobi: he’s got a big, fat snow.
Enid: he’s big and black.
Meris: he’s black. He frosts all the ice. He eats sausage.
Bethany: he’s white and he’s frosty.
Halle: he puts Jack Frost on the windows. He’s a man. He’s yellow.
Charlie: he’s white and he’s small.
