We have been reading several versions of Little Red Riding Hood in the first few weeks of September. Most of the children have heard the story before and we enjoyed comparing different versions. Bethan Woollvin has written several ‘twisted tales’ and we enjoyed her version – Little Red.
We decided Little Red is a fearless, brave and clever character in this story. We had to use our inference skills because the story does not directly tell us this.
We have also used these books to give us ideas to write sentences, discuss new words and read with prosody (expression).
What big teeth you have grandma!
Help at home by reading stories out loud to your child and showing a love of reading.
