englishcorner: Year 5 The true story of the three little pigs

"The true story of the three little pigs" written by Jon Scieszka.

All of us know the story about three pigs but this story is very different to the original. This is the version of the wolf.

This book tries to give importance to the wolf who is the bad character in the first version but nobody worry about his feelings and actions. So the author tries to give another perspective to the children. In my opinion, he does it because he wants to teach the students that all the stories have more than one version and it is necessary to hear all to understand the problem.

If we compare both stories we can see similiraties and differences, we work it with a Venn diagram and with a compare and contrast template of Inspiration.

The new story tells that the poor wolf only wants a cup of sugar so he decides to ask the three little pigs. The wolf was flu. He went to the first house but he had a problem, he sneezed so strong that he demolished the house and he eat the first little pig.

In the second house something similar happened. But in the third house, the little pig called the police and the wolf was arrested.

After read and see the different points of view we have to do a neardpod and this is mine:

We worked word, sentence and tex level with this book. First to work the the differences and similiraties I have done a Venn diagram in which children have to put images of the story and then they have to write sentences about the pictures.

Then we did a compare and contraste map. It is very similar to the Venn diagram but in this new map we can include key words to scaffold our understanding and the understanding of the children. When we did this, also we did a PowerPoint presentation but we did not use the normal PowerPoint we used the Inspiration tool. This is the result of all the work:
