Wibbly Pig's Silly Big Bear

We enjoyed getting to know Wibbly Pig so much, we thought we would read another story about him . . .


Noah - "That means we've got two with Wibbly Pig now!"

Wibbly Pig has a bear so big he can hardly fit on the page!

Ruby - "He's like a giant!"

Wibbly's bear was having a few problems . . . 

Jessica - "He's not been eating his peas very well!"

Alisha - "The bear didn't eat his peas very well because he didn't use a spoon"

He eats his ice cream with his paws and gets it everywhere!

Jack - "And it's on Pig's head as well!"

Georgia - "The silly bear didn't know how to sit on a potty or brush his teeth!"

Gethin - "He didn't brush his teeth!"

Alisha - "He doesn't know where to hide!"
Alfie - "Beacause he's too big!"
Gethin - "You have to go under the bed" (to hide)

But the bear was good at some things . . . he can jump!
And he can crash! And he can bash his paws like thunderclaps!

Maisy - "He twist the Pig round and round!"

Alisha - "I liked the Pig when he was blowing the bubbles"

When Wibbly's bear is no longer here, when he is gone . . . 

Alisha - "He will be sad"

Poor Wibbly!

Have you got a favourite bear - we would love to hear all about him!

Wibbly Pig has 10 Balloons

We have been meeting a new friend - and his name is Wibbly Pig!

Wibbly Pig is very proud of his ten balloons. But his friends arrive and everybody wants one. 
Soon even his favourite teddy bear balloon has gone . . .

Noah - "I've got that story at home, I borrowed it from the library"

Archie - "He shares them out" (the balloons)

Alisha - "Who wrote the book?"

Esme - "Mick Inkpen writes it!"

We enjoyed working out how many balloons Wibbly Pig would have left each time . . .

Noah - "There will be 9 left because he's given 1 away!" (showed 9 fingers)
"And if he gives 1 away that will be 8, and then he's going to give another one away and there will be 7!" (showing 7 fingers)

Big Pig's sister wanted a balloon too - but she wasn't very polite in the way she asked!

Bethan - "She didn't say 'please'!"

Georgia - "The naughty pig didn't say please and she stamped her feet and took the balloon"

She grabbed the strings from Wibbly so that she could get the pink one with the bow - "That's the one I want!" she squealed - and then let the others go!

Summa - "The piggy stamped her feet and pulled a balloon and let the others go"

Ava - "I liked it when the naughty pig stamped her feet and she took a balloon and let the others go!"

Noah - "I liked it when the girl took the strings off Wibbly Pig and the balloons rose"

Poor old Wibbly had no balloons left . . .

Felicity - "Zero makes none!"

Jack - "The balloons blow up in the sky"

Alisha - "The teddy bear balloon - the Pig liked the teddy bear balloon but it was floating away"
Evan E - "The Pig is called Wibbly!"

Wibbly Pig and Tiny Pig sat sadly in the park . . . "No balloons" sighs Wibbly Pig. "And I started off with ten! That teddy bear balloon was best. I had three left and then . . ."

Noah - "I don't feel sad because look what's coming in the corner!"

Sam - "The teddy bear balloon floated back to him - that balloon floated across the moon!"

Lexie-Mai - "And he's really happy!"

"My teddy bear balloon came back!" says Wibbly with a grin. And Tiny's grinning too because . . . one came back for him!

Kipper's Toybox

Everyone enjoyed the story of 'Kipper's Toybox' - 
Someone or something had been nibbling a hole . . . 


Jessica - "I liked the snake - because he was in Kipper's toybox"

Jacob - "The toys get out"

Kipper was worried about his toys - we joined in as he counted each one in turn - Kipper was upset when he couldn't find Sock Thing . . .

Summa - "He throwed Owl out of the toybox and he throwed them all out and he didn't tidy them up again!"

Noah - "I liked it when Kipper woke up and there was something wriggling along the floor - it was coming from the corner of the bedroom - it was Sock thing!"

Alfie - "Sock Thing was running away"

Evan E - "The Owl fell out Kipper's basket - because Kipper followed the sock"

Kipper was not sure what to do - none of his toys had ever come to life before! He grabbed Sock Thing by the nose - he squeaked, then a little tail appeared, a little pink tail . . .

Maisy - "The mice was in the toy Sock"

Summa - "The mouse got in the Sock Thingy and Kipper got woke up by the mouse"

Alisha - "Sock Thing was wriggling around cause I saw the mice's tail I did!"

Jack - "Somebody nibbled the box - the Sock!"

Thomas M - "I liked the toybox but even the big mice nibbled through the toybox hole. 
Kipper threw Big Owl out of the toybox"

Bailey - "The mouse nibbled the box"

Gethin - "Mouse made the hole in Kipper's toybox"

The mice had been nibbling pieces of Kipper's toybox to make their nest - they promised not to nibble it again - but their babies didn't - and they nibbled EVERYTHING!

Georgia - "The mice were eating the basket - the baby mice"

 Esme - "The baby mice nibbled the basket"

Maisy - "The mice eat Kipper's toybox - and all the baby ones. But they didn't promise to not eat Kipper's toybox!"

Have you got lots of toys in your toybox? 
We would love to hear about your favourite one.

Willow Class Loved Splash!

This week Willow class loved reading 'Splash' by this terms Author - Jane Hissey.
We chose the story as it has been a very rainy week and we've been looking at the story of Noahs Ark.

 Georgia loved the part when little bear fell out of the bucket!

Abigail loved the part when Little bear made friends with Seal!

We started to talk about what kind of things float and sink. We have had lots of fun experimenting with different things in our floating and sinking tank.
