Kindergarten, it is #12| The enormous turnip

🎶3′ Activity 1: We sing the song

This is big, big, big / This is small, small, small

This is short, short, short/ This is tall, tall, tall,

This is fast, fast, fast/ This is slow, slow, slow

This is yes yes, yes/ This is no, no, no

⬛️▪️5′ Activity 2: I revise and introduce vocabulary small, big, enormous, grandad, grandma, boy, girl, dog, cat, pull.

📖 10′ Activity 3: We try to guess what will happen based on the cover. We then read the story and a second time if they liked it and we discuss what we liked the most.

5′ Activity 4: We watch the story retold by Irene Yates on https://youtu.be/mGw5yTOPTSQ?feature=shared

10′ Activity 5 Dramatisation : We act out the story by me pretending to be the turnip and the pupils take turns being the grandad, the grandma, the biy ,the girl, the dog, the cat and the mouse and they try to pull me. We act it out in a safe area with small sofas and rugs.

7′-10′ Activity: They draw something they liked from the story. Some find a solution for the story and draw what would have worked more effectively, like a truck that can pull the turnip.
