Fairy Tales

This term we will continue to learn about traditional tales. Our key books will be ‘Goldilocks and the Three Bears’ and ‘The Three Billy Goats Gruff’ and ‘Little Red Riding Hood’. The children will learn to retell these stories, talk about the main events and learn how stories are structured and will be encouraged to join in with repeated refrains and use story language supported by props. The children will dress up as story characters and act out the stories in our role play area.  Bedtime stories are a fantastic way to help your child develop a love of reading and help them with their language development so please keep reading and enjoying books.This term we will continue to learn about traditional tales.
