Year 2 - Literacy Learning - Week Beginning 24th April 2017

This week we have been using traditional stories, particularly Little Red Riding Hood.  We have used the story to look at punctuation, adjectives, ordering events and to give the children an opportunity for drama and storytelling.  The children really enjoyed taking on the roles of the wolf (as grandma) and little red riding hood to act out the scene at grandma's house.  Next week we will be using the same story, changing the settings and characters to make a new version of the story.  We have several versions to read and we will be creating our own red riding hood stories.  At home you could try telling each other a traditional story from memory, or even act one out if you are feeling brave!
