The Reception children returned from lunch on Monday to find that someone had been in their classrooms and had left quiet the mess. There was chairs knocked over, porridge oats everywhere, a pink ribbon, footprints and three bowls and three spoons. Who could it be?
The children had lots of ideas and theories and their suggestions included monsters, ogres, bandits, giants, bats, bears and vampires. Together we looked closer at the clues that had been left behind and tried to connect these together. The children spent the rest of the afternoon looking for more clues, discussing what had happened with the other classes and recording the clues they had found on clipboards. At the end of the afternoon, we put all the information we found together and decided that the culprit was Goldilocks!
This has been a very exciting hook for the week ahead, when we will be focusing on the story Goldilocks and the three bears. The children will be describing Goldilocks and writing wanted posters to help find her. We will also be discussing whether we would be friends with Goldilocks and how we look after property, resources and belongings.
Harry "It happened in here as well! The same person has been Aspen!"
Osazemen "I found another clue, there is porridge by the writing area."
James "Lets look outside for more clues."
