Class 2B
Today the class continued their English work on Traditional Tales. Last week they learnt about the story of 'The Three Little Pigs', role playing the story, writing compound sentences, completing some fantastic storyboards (see below) and culminating in a piece of creative writing retelling the story. Today this topic was continued as we began to look at the story of Cinderella (if your child hasn't already I would highly recommend them either watching the video or reading the story at home so that they can get to know the characters and context.) We started the lesson with a discussion about heroes and villains which was used to later identify the types of character in the story. The class were then split into two groups and asked to created a character profile for either Cinderella (hero) or the ugly stepsisters (villains). I was very impressed with the number of adjectives collected and the way the class were able to consider the story to support their ideas.
