Good Morning, Reception.

I hope that you are enjoying our ‘Traditional Tales’ topic.

We are going to focus on a new book for the next week and I am going to reveal only a little bit at a time

Today, all I want you to do is look closely at these objects that belong to the main character in our new story:

Think about these questions:

What are they?

What do you think they might be for?

Who might have left them?

What do you think the owner’s favourite colour might be?

What do you think the story might be about?

If the story was about you, what colour would your objects be?

Can you draw your objects and label them?

I am looking forward to hearing all of your ideas.

Love from Miss Siswick.

PRINTABLE VERSION: R Topic Tuesday

It would really help me if you could upload photos  straight to the media file (instructions are here: sharing photos and files) as they get to me more quickly and easily as they don’t have to go via the office and my e-mail. Please can either your child’s name or face (but not both) be visible on any photos. Many thanks.

  1. Toy horse, apple, cherry, string, feather, lady bug.

    The apple might be to feed the horse, their favourite colour is red.
    It could be a story about Red things
    I think an owl could have collected the things, and the story could be about the owl.

The owner favourite colour is red.The story is a about a farmer and the donkey and all the staff is for the donkey to eat. If was my story the colour would be pink.

    Well done, Ruby-Mae and Amber. I loved hearing your ideas about the objects. Great thinking.

  4. Good morning Miss,
    A pony, an apple, cherries, a string, a feather, a lady bug.
    Some are for eating, some to make something
    Maybe it’s snow white because of the apple
    It’s red
    I could be about a little girl that collects things, maybe she lives in a castle.
    My colour would be red or pink
    I have sent you my drawing

  5. Good morning,

    There are a toy horse, an apple, a string, two cherries, a feather and a lady bug.
    The toy horse is to play, the apple and cherries are to be eaten, the string is to make things and the feather is to tickle friends.
    The person likes red and I think it might be a kid.

    My colour would be yellow as it is my favourite colour.

  10. Toy horse , apple, cherry, thread, feather and ladybird.
    You play with the horse, you eat the apple and cherry, you see with thread , you hold a feather and the ladybird flies.
    Someone left them because they ‘re not using them anymore.
    I think red is their favourite colour is red. It is a giant and they took them from people. Red is my favourite colour too.

    Good afternoon Reception. Well done for your hard work.

  12. Philippa says:

    We loved this assignment! A pony, an apple, cherry, string, one feather and a ladybird. We think the things belong to a princess that lives in a castle. She likes eating fruits and using feathers on her head. We wrote down the words and also made a drawing of what our things would be: candy, ball, crown and headphones. Our favourite colour is blue.

  13. Juliana says:

    Hi Miss Siswick, the objects are: horse toy, apple, cherry, knitting string, feather, and a lady bug. The ladybug is to climb on your hands, the knitting string is for knitting things, the feather is for writing.
    They were left there maybe by a little princess or a prince.
    The owners favourite colour is red. The story is about princesses because they love eating fruits, knitting, and go on horses.
    If the story was about me it would be blue.

  14. Miss Siswick says:

    Well done; Madeleine, Rocco and Philippa. Three more great answers to today’s question. I am loving hearing all of your ideas today.

  15. Hi!!! I enjoyed this task.
    I think the traditional tales story is Rapunzel.
    I’ve uploaded two photos!

  16. Miss Siswick says:

    Well done, Marcus. You have thought carefully about your guesses.

    You will all have to wait until Thursday for the beginning of the new story and to find out if any of you have guessed the character!

  17. Cesar ? says:

    Hello Miss Siswick! My answers are:
    – The objects are: a horse, an apple, cherries, string, feather, ladybird.
    – The horse is for playing, the apple is for eating, the cherries are for eating, the string is for “doing stuff”, the feather is for blowing into the sky and the lazy bird is for flying.
    – The elves and fairies may have left them
    – Their favourite colour might be red
    – The story might be about elves and fairies
    – If the story as about me, my colour would be red

  18. chiara found a horse,apple,cherry,feather and ladybird and wrote these words by herself.
    these objects are to play,eat,make something,tickle someone, to stay on my hand
    they are Miss Savage objects
    her favourite color seems to be red as is mine.
    The story is about playing and hapiness.

  19. I think the story is about a little boy who lost the objects and his favourite colour is red. I think he played with the toy horse and ate the apple and cherries. Maybe he was going to make some clothes with the feather and thread?
    If the story was about me, I would pick the colour silver. I have drawn a picture for you.

  20. Miss Siswick says:

    Well done; Cesar, Chiara and Luca. Some more great ideas. You have thought carefully about this.

  21. Good morning Miss,

    1/ What are they ?
    A ponycycle, an apple, two cherries, thread, a feather, a ladybird.

    2/ What do you think they may be for?
    The ponycycle is for a child called James. He will eat the apple and the cherries. The thread is for making a shirt. Feathers keep the bird hot. The ladybird is at the zoo on a horse back.

    3/ Who might have left them?
    A boy called James

    4/ What do you think the owner’s favorite colour might be?
    Pink and red.

    5/ What do you think the story might be about?
    I don’t know.

    6/ If the story was about you, what colour would your objects be?
    Once upon a time, a girl went to have lunch and eat red cherries. She washed her teeth and went on a ponycycle to the street where she saw a beautiful feather.

    What do you think?

    Have a lovely day!
