Summer 2

This term we are exploring Traditional Tales; we will be looking at well known stories such as Jack and the Beanstalk, The Three Little Pigs and Little Red Riding Hood. We will be using our topic not only to inspire our writing, but also our Design and Technology projects. We will be  designing a structure for the Three Little Pigs to live in! Hopefully we will use materials that are strong enough to keep out any pesky wolves!
