This week P1b have been reading about the story of The Three Little Pigs.
We had a good think about what we would build our houses with. James thought stones and bricks would be a good idea as they are so strong. Jamie designed his house using cans and cement whilst Alfie had many many windows to be able to look out and see everybody.
Today, we watched the “real” story of The Three Little Pigs. It was very exciting and we couldn’t believe what we were hearing.
This is what we heard….
The wolf was wanting to make a birthday cake for his granny and needed a cup of sugar so he went next door to his neighbour the pig. He knocked on the door but nobody answered. Suddendly, the wolf let out an enormous sneeze and the whole straw house fell down.
So he decided to go to the neighbour next door again, who happened to be the first little pig’s brother. He knocked on the door but nobody was home. Again he felt a sneeze coming on. He couldn’t hold it in and he sneezed “achoo” and the whole house made of sticks fell down.
So he decided to try one more neighbour who happened to be the brother of the other two pigs. He knocked on the door but this time the angry little pig told him to go away, don’t bother me and said something unkind about his granny. The wolf became so mad and went a little bit crazy. He went so crazy the pig police had to be called and they arrested the wolf.
The next day when the newspapers heard about this story they thought it didn’t sound as exciting as it could be so they ‘framed’ the wolf and said that he was very bad and changed the story that he was after the little pigs and wanted to eat them all up for his tea. There was no mention of his granny’s birthday cake or that he simply wanted to borrow a cup of sugar.
We can’t decide if we think the wolf is guilty or not guilty…..
