Billy Goats Gruff

The children have been reading Traditional Tales in literacy.
We read the story of the Three Billy Goats Gruff. They then role played part of the story in groups. The children are fantastic actors and worked really hard. At the end of the lesson the children watched each others role plays.

Last week we started our topic on Light and Dark. We read 'The Owl who was afraid of the dark' and 'A Dark Dark Tale'.

We then investigated Dark in different ways. The children took turns in going into a dark area the classroom with torches.

We also had dark boxes filled with different toys that the children took turns in looking into. Without the torches they could not see the toys but with the torches they could identify what was inside the box learning that with out light we can not see.
