The Gruffalo - Year 1 Talk for Writing

Year 1 have learnt our version of The Gruffalo off by heart using a story map and actions. Take a look!

Question Words

Year 1 thinking of some questions to ask the characters from the Gruffalo story!

He has terrible tusks and terrible claws...

Year 1 have been looking at naming body parts and have discussed what their purpose is.

Story Map

We have shortened the story down and created a story map made up of pictures to help us learn the story. Alongside these pictures, we use actions to help us retell the story off by heart.

Capital letters

We have been recognising the initial letters and matching them to their capital letters.

Aha! Oho! A track in the snow! Whose is this track and where does it go?
