Who's afraid of the big, bad wolf?

Certainly, not us! We have been reading the traditional tale, The Three Little Pigs. The whole class have been busy with a range of 'Three Little Pigs' activities. We created a display for the wall, which included the big, bad wolf and some great collage pigs.




We learnt about the characters in the story by using a 'hot seat' to quiz one of the little pigs, with her house of sticks.



Our mp3 player headphones were used so much for listening to the story, that the children had to charge them frequently!



The children enjoyed the story so much, that they used every opportunity to retell it to each other.




We used our investigative skills to test a range of materials that the pigs could have used to build a strong house. We 'huffed and puffed' each one to see if it would 'blow down'. It seems that bricks are definitely the strongest materials to use, as our lego brick house did not budge!
