Me,Neve and Nia worked in a group of three to find out everything we can about Goldilocks and the three bears.

What is a Fairy Tale?

This week in library time I have been finding out about fairy tales. First we had to find a fairy tale in the library.  This was not easy because we looked in the fiction section of the library.  They are actually in the non fiction section.  Once we had found one we had to work out what made it a fairy tale.

I really thought that this task was fun because even though I had read fairy tales before I hadn't thought about what made them a fairy tale. Next time I could put more information in to it.  What do you know about fairy tales?
 

Fairy Tale Setting Map

This week we have been learning about fairy tales. Each group got a fairy tale and my group got Goldilocks and the 3 Bears. First we listened to the story and identified the different settings throughout the story.  Then we had to make a map of all of the settings and number each in the order they appeared in the story.  

I found this activity fun because we got to draw.  Next time I would probably put more detail in my map so people could use it to tell the story.

What is Nessie?

This week we have been looking at mysteries in our world.  The mystery we are looking at first is the mystery of the Loch ness Monster.  First we were given a piece of writing that describes what witnesses think the monster looks like.  We had to draw then we had to find out what it was. Next week we are going to investigate if it is real.  Do you think it is?
