Dreamtime stories

As part of our IPC unit called 'Stories People Tell' we have been sharing stories from around the world. Including from Australia, where the Dreamtime stories are a very important pGoogleart of Aboriginal culture. These stories are often about animals and nature. We listened to one about a frog called Tiddalik. Here is another version of the story for you to share at home.

Les Musiciens de Brême

Yesterday we watched a puppet show in French called Les Musiciens de Brême (the title in English is The Town Musicians of Bremen). It is a folktale recorded by the Brothers Grimm. 
We really enjoyed the story.
This picture shows the famous statue in Bremen, Germany. We can see all the animals from the story.




There were lots of characters in the story but only one man to control all the puppets. We thought he did a very good job.

Becoming Wild Things

We worked with our talk partners to tell our stories and then some volunteers told their story of becoming a wild thing in front of the whole class. Here are some of the stories.
