Langauge, Literacy and Communication

This fortnight we have been reading 'The Elves and the Shoemaker' as part of our work on Traditional Tales.  The children have enjoyed sequencing pictures from the story and re-telling it in groups.  They have also created speech bubbles with what the characters might be saying.



We know that every story needs a beginning, middle and end.  In groups we divided up the story into beginning, middle and end.  Each pair took part of the story to re-tell then we were able to put it together to create a group book.





We have talked a lot about the books we like reading and why and have enjoyed sharing them with others.  Here are just a few of our favourite books.
