Our class wrote a description of the Queen of Hearts. Below are two examples of our work.

Life begins when you get back up

“My name is Humpty Dumpty. I’m famous for falling off a wall. But that’s only half the story, because I decided to get back up. And when I did, something amazing happened….”

We wrote our own version of Dan Santat's story in which Humpty had a different nursery rhyme-themed accident!

Here is a fantastic piece from our Year 2 student Cora:

My name is Humpty, and I am a tiny round and fragile egg. I love climbing the hill because I love getting water. A long time ago, I fell down the huge hill and broke my precious shell. I felt devastated. The brave king's men found me on the freezing cold grass. I did not return to the humongous hill. I felt devastated. Finally, I felt as brave as a lion and I climbed up the huge hill. I felt proud. 

We have been having great fun writing our own versions of the Big Bad Wolf's fairy tale disaster inspired by David Conway and Melanie Williamson's book. We will now write a fairy tale disaster story about a different character! Below is an example of Ayan's work:

Once upon a time there was a yummy ginger bread man. He was sneaky as a monkey, he caused chaos. He was tired because people chased him. Now the gingerbread man is in a new fairytale. He then wanted to return. The gingerbread man said, If I go in a new fairytail, I'll never return. Suddenly, the ginger bread man dashed quietly into Cinderella's house, and then he crossly pushed Cinderella onto the floor. After a while, the Fairy God Mother arrived, then she made him wear the coolest dress in the land. The Gingerbread man was so embarrassed that he ran away. Then, the Gingerbread man went to Jack and the Beanstalk, and he pushed Jack. The Beanstalk was as tall as a skyscraper. It was as green as could be. The sneaky Gingerbread Man kept on climbing, then, the giant roared at him, then he dashed away to find a new story. A few minutes later he dashed to the three bears' cottage. The first bowl was as boiling as the sun. The second bowl was as freezing as an ice bath. The last bowl was just fine. Next, the door was busted by daddy bear, and daddy bear said "Who's in here?" The three bears quickly chased him past Prince Charming, little Red and Puss in boots. Finally, they went back home. He was joyful.

The end.
