This week, we have been reading a new story in class – “The Gruffalo” by Julia Donaldson. Our whole class loves this story and finds it really funny.
Declan Detective wants to know what happens next in the story. We drew a picture of what actually happened at the end, then we drew a picture of what we wanted to happen. Here are some of our made up endings:
– Lewis changed his ending so that the mouse would eat the gruffalo
– Katie made the gruffalo squirt a water gun onto the mouse’s face!
– Lily made Rapunzel and Ariel arrive and save the mouse from the gruffalo
– Lucas drew a picture of the gruffalo kicking the mouse into the air and then eating him
-Donna made the gruffalo very kind, then the mouse kicked the gruffalo down a hole!
As you can tell, all our Primary 1s have very good imaginations!!
Next, we talked to Christopher Character who wants to know more about the characters in the story. We drew pictures of the gruffalo and then thought of describing words that we listed next to him. Some of the words to describe the gruffalo were:
-angry
-prickly
-scary
-ugly
-mad
-spikey
We are looking forward to reading the Scottish version of this story soon 🙂
Have a lovely weekend!
Hi Primary 1w,
I’m so pleased to read that you have been using Christopher Character and Declan Detective to help you to develop your reading skills. Your different endings to The Gruffalo sound very interesting and you have thought of great words to describe the Gruffalo.
Have a lovely weekend.
