‘Nurturing Individual Excellence’

Monday 22nd February

Good Morning everyone!

 

And we are back ....

 

I hope you had a super half term and are feeling refreshed and ready to go. 

 

Our learning over the next few weeks is guided by traditional tales such as 'Red Riding Hood', 'Goldilocks and the Three Bears', 'Jack and the Beanstalk' and 'The Gingerbread Man'.

 

We will be reading different versions of these stories as we explore these well known characters and their behaviour.

 

Our first story is 'Little Red Riding Hood'.
