Helping the Little Red Hen

 

This week Reception have been reading all about the Little Red Hen.  We have thought about how she must have felt when her friends did not help!  Unlike the farm animals, the children were brilliant at working as a team, taking turns to mix ingredients before kneeding the dough to make bread rolls.  We heard lots of lovely descriptive language too – “ooh this is so sticky” “it stretches” and “squidgy and soggy”.  We hope they enjoy eating the rolls as much as the Little Red Hen enjoyed eating her bread all by herself!
