Helicopter Stories
Lesson: English
Class: Miss Kehoe - Rec 2 Year: 2017 - 2018
In Reception we have brought in a fantastic new idea of Helicopter Stories to support lots of different areas of your child's development. During Helicopter Stories, we act out stories as they are being told. It is up to each child's imagination to how they act out certain characters and objects. Children sit along the edge of the carpet space so that all children get a front row seat along the 'stage'. Helicopter Stories allow more and more children to participate and all the children are really excited to get involved. So far we have been acting out familiar stories such as 'Elmer' and 'Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?' which we have used during our Big Book sessions. As Reception become more confident in their understanding of story structures we will be making our own stories together, as a class, and acting them out which we hope the children will really enjoy.
