Have you ever had a guest eat more than their fair share?
EYFS had been learning all about The Tiger Who Came to Tea this week. They have loved the story and how the tiger emptied the fridge and cupboards! The children have tried some food from the story too.
"We drew pictures of the food" - Hallie
"He is SO greedy!" - Harper
"He has a rumbly tummy" - Cooper
"Silly tiger!" - Jonas

He has terrible tusks, and terrible claws, And terrible teeth in his terrible jaws... Who could it be? The Gruffalo!
We have loved our shared reading text, The Gruffalo. We have spent time learning the story and have even used drama to re create the scenes. We had a special delivery from the library service, The Gruffalo puppets! The children have loved using the puppets and can remember the story. The children have also learnt The Gruffalo song and performed it together.
"He has knobbly knees, and turned-out toes" - Meredith
"The mouse is the scariest creature in the wood" - Dexter
"The mouse likes Gruffalo crumble" - Kasper
