Today in the garden we invited the children to read and retell the story of Goldilocks and the three bears.

“We’re going out on a walk to the woods”

“Mummy bears bowl of porridge”

“Someone been eating my porridge and they have eaten it all up”

We provided the children with some puppets and props to explore the story.  The children have been using role play to act out the characters from the familiar story recalling the main events.

“This one’s just right”

“Now the porridge is to cold”

Some children found some ice in the garden and stared to collect it in the bowl and started playing around with changing the story.

Story telling has so many learning opportunities for our children, it’s great to tell these stories in a way that captures the interests of our individual children.

World Book Day coming up on the 7th March. What book will you read?
