Good Morning, Nursery.

I hope that you are enjoying our ‘Traditional Tales’ topic.

Today, we are going to focus on  the traditional tale of ‘Goldilocks and the three Bears.’

You can listen to it here:

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=FdHeSaUjR2E

There are no pictures so you can use your imagination to imagine what the characters and the setting look like.

After you have listened to the story, can you tell a grown up how to finish these sentences?

Then choose your favourite character from the story and tell an adult all about them.

If you have a book of the Goldilocks story you could read it to see what the characters look like in that authors imagination.

You could use toys to retell the story or act it out.

You could create a picture of the characters.

If you would like to try making porridge like the three bears, the instructions are here: Goldilocks-porridge-sheet (1)

I am looking forward to hearing all about your learning today.

Love from Miss Siswick

PRINTABLE VERSION:N Topic Tuesday

It would really help me if you could upload photos  straight to the media file (instructions are here: sharing photos and files) as they get to me more quickly and easily as they don’t have to go via the office and my e-mail. Please can either your child’s name or face (but not both) be visible on any photos. Many thanks.

  12. Mrs Knowler says:

    I always think Goldilocks is a little bit naughty sneaking into the bear’s house.
    When I read a story I sometimes wonder what happened next. I like to think that Goldilocks and the three bears became friends. ?

  13. Grace answered the questions correctly. Grace said I think the bears are angry with Goldilocks because she was a tiny bit naughty. The bears feel angry and sad and cross but they might they like her after a while!
    Grace’s favourite character is Goldilocks because she is brave to go into the bear’s house.

    Who agrees with Mrs Knowler and Aoife that Goldilocks shouldn’t have gone into the house without an invitation?
