Twisted Tales Topic

In this topic Gold class have been reading lots of traditional tales and then learning about the alternative versions! 

Some of our favourites so far have been:

• The Wolf's Story 
• The Three Little Wolves and The Big Bad Pig 
• Snow White and the Seven Robots 
• The Ninjabreadman 

Our First Topic of the year is 'Monsters & Beasts'

Within this cross curricular topic we will be reading a range of books including:

• The colour monster
• Go away big green monster
• Monsters love underpants
• There’s a monster in your book
• The Smeds & The Smoos
• Mad About Minibeasts
• Twist & Hop to the Minibeast Bop
• What the Ladybird Heard

... And many more

These books have lots of lovely cross curricular themes, for instance last week while reading the colour monster we thought about our feelings and emotions during emotional literacy sessions. This will continue throughout the year.

We will be learning about Minibeasts in Science and outdoor learning as well as seasonal changes (including linking to Halloween)

Making our own bug hotels and wind chimes in DT as well as getting creative with Monster themed Art & DT
