\"\"I hope you have all had a good week. We have been really busy\u00a0 turning our classroom into fairyland! As promised last week I have pictures of the beans that we planted. They are coming along nicely and the children are enjoying looking after them. I will send them home next week and hopefully they will continue to grow in your garden.<\/p>\n

The Three Little Pigs \"\"<\/p>\n

We have really enjoyed reading The Three Little Pigs and have completed a number of activities around the story. Firstly we re-told the story .<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Next we decided to carry out a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Maths) Challenge. We wanted to know if we could build a house strong enough to withstand the big bad wolf as he huffed and puffed. Firstly, we investigated materials around the classroom to find out what we could use.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Next we gathered materials\u00a0 (wooden sticks, lolly pop sticks, straws, lego and wooden bricks) and started to build. I went around with a hairdryer. To represent the huffing and puffing of the big bad wolf. Some “houses” were more successful that others!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

On Wednesday we came back from lunch to find that the dragon had visited and left a letter and a gift for all the children.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The children were thrilled with the letter and castle booklets!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Writing – The Three Little Pigs<\/p>\n

I gave the the children a picture from the story and they were asked to write what happens next. Some super examples-<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Writing – The Three Billy Goats Gruff<\/p>\n

The children also re-told the story of the Three Billy Goats Gruff, using simple sequencing. Some examples below-<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The children made a bridge for the Billy Goats to cross.\"\"<\/p>\n

I hope you have enjoyed seeing some of the fantastic learning that has taken place this week. Have a lovely long weekend and I shall post more updates next week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
