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.
