Peter and the Wolf

In the Portuguese sessions with Professora Maria do Céu,
Reception Bears have been talking about
Peter and the Wolf. 

The children have illustrated the story and their work
is on the displayboard outside the computer room

if you wish to view some of the pieces.

Hans Christian Andersen

Reception Bears have really enjoyed stories by Mick Inkpen, Nick Butterworth and more recently stories by Hans Christian Andersen.

Hans Christian Andersen wrote scary, sad and funny stories.

He wrote stories about love and friendship, good and evil, kindness and hardship, mystery and magic.

The Snow Queen was a scary story about
the fight of good against evil.

True friendship and bravery conquered evil.

With The Ugly Duckling we talked about accepting differences and how words can be cruel.

The Emperor's new clothes was a funny story that lead us to talk about vanity and blind greed.

The Little Match Girl was very sad.
We spoke about the difficulties that some children face
and that perhaps Hans Christian Andersen
might have faced difficulties himself.

The Princess and the pea - the first of the love stories.

This is going to be a pleasant surprise: 

The Little Mermaid

It is all go go go!

Ted enjoyed spending the weekend at my house.

We were really busy.

We played board games, made biscuits

and went for a walk in the park.

We also went swimming and played the drums.

Jack Frost - story

Jack Frost does not really visit children in Oporto,

but he can visit your homes in the form of this book

and the experiences the children are having at school.

Can you guess who read and recorded this story?
