The story of Jack and the Beanstalk

Overall rating 4 out of 54.8 (5 ratings)

This is a simple re-telling of the traditional tale for Foundation Stage children in Picture book format. "When Jack climbed to the top, he heard a terrible noise. THUMP! THUMP! THUMP! It was a Giant rushing home for his tea... "Fee, fi, fo, fum! Watch out everyone! HERE I COME!" I More…followed it up with a class re-enactment of the story: we planted 'magic beans' and the children came in to find a 'giant beanstalk' ( tree from the Reception area!) and a golden egg on the floor. Who left the egg? What was inside it? Where was the Giant?

Ideal retelling of the story.. I used this with my Year 1 class. They loved it and it was a wonderful way to carry out shared reading. Also, nobody said I can't see the pictures as they often do with a regular book. Thanks!
