Book Worms #2
As part of our Book Worms topic we stayed with the traditional tales theme and enjoyed the story of The Three Billy Goats Gruff. We love using familiar stories to help with our ability to recount and sequence events in stories and do character studies. In numeracy we have been working on time and we are trying so hard with o'clock, half past and minutes past/to the hour. It was fun linking this to the story of the Three Billy Goats Gruff and making the times the goats met the Big Bad Troll on digital and analogue clocks.
During Activity Based Learning we took part in STEM challenges to find different ways to build bridges and then tested their strength. We also thought of alternative ways the goats could have crossed the river and built them rafts so they could have avoided the Big Bad Troll.
We really enjoyed doing a musical sound story using drums. The Big Bad Troll rap was great fun!!
