The Three Little Pigs
We have been reading the story of The Three Little Pigs. We created our own story map and we explored the different characters in the story. We received a surprise visit from the Big Bad Wolf and we asked him lots of questions.
The Big Bad Wolf wasn't sorry for trying to eat the Three Little Pigs and we decided that we would help him to become a better Wolf and a better friend. We invited him to a party and wrote a shopping list and some invitations to prepare.
When we met the Big Bad Wolf we asked him lots of questions and found out about his likes and dislikes. We created character profiles for each of the characters including their likes? dislikes? What they are good at? and What they can do?
We found out that the Wolf likes to bake cakes so we decided to help him bake a cake to give to the Three Little Pigs to say his sorry.
However unfortunately we found out The Three Little Pigs had been arrested! We saw a newsflash that told us about what had happened. The Three Little Pigs were sent to jail for burning the Big Bad Wolfs bottom. We discussed the evidence that we had witnessed and we talked about whether we thought the Pigs were innocent or guilty. We discussed reasons why they should be sent to jail and reasons that we thought they should be released.
We have had so much fun exploring the story of the Three Little Pigs and the different characters. We created a story map, we participated in hot seating, a debate and we did lots of different forms of writing.
We hope that the Big Bad Wolf receives our invitation and he come to our party!
Our Talk for Writing of the Three Little Pigs
We created our own story map of the Three little pigs using Pie Corbett's Talk for Writing. We acted out our story using our story map. We used actions, connectives, story telling language and repeated phrases to retell and learn the story of the Three Little Pigs.
