To celebrate Roald Dahl Day on Tuesday 13th September, we read ‘The Enormous Crocodile’. Over the past few days we have done some Maths, Language and Expressive Arts work linked to the story.
In drama this morning, the groups were given the challenge of acting out each of the 4 ‘TRICKS’ the craft crocodile tried to play on the children.
TRICK 1
Jared: The crocodile pretended to be a tree. He got leaves over him and holded coconuts and standed up. Humpy Rumpy the hippopotamus knocked him over and the children ran.
TRICk 2
Aimee: The crocodile pretended to be a see-saw in the play park. The children wanted to play on it. Muggle Wump the monkey said ‘Watch out!’ And they ran away from the croc.
TRICK 3
Casey: The crocodile was pretending to be a wooden animal on the carousel. Then the Roly Poly bird came and he gave a warning. The children ran away and the crocodile was getting hungrier!
TRICK 4
Jenny: The crocodile was a bench and the children were going to go on it. But the elephant came rushing in for a warning. He swung the crocodile around and around and he went flying up to the sun. He got burned up like sausage!
