Year 1 Fairytales
Year 1 have been learning about fairytales to help us with our literacy work. All of the children are incredibly familiar with the story of Little Red Riding Hood, and so we decided to create our own Year 1 character – Little Blue Riding Hood! We decided that we wanted to make our fairytale have a slight twist from the original. We decided as a class that Little Blue Riding Hood needed to be smarter in order not to be caught out by the Big Bad Wolf. The children have been writing their own stories to help to explain this. We have heard some fantastic ideas – Little Blue Riding Hood feeds the Big Bad Wolf some chewing gum so that his teeth stick together! Another idea was that Little Blue Riding Hood is given a scooter so that she can escape. As well as writing out our stories, the children have also some made Little Blue Riding Hood puppets to help them act out their ideas.
