Little Pig, Little Pig

Who doesn’t know the story of "The Three Little Pigs"? Well all of my Doodlebugs could manage telling the story so instead of reading to them they took turns telling it to me, each adding a line as we went around the class!

The main gist? One takes little time in building the home out of straw and spends the rest of his time playing and relaxing. A second pig builds a home out of sticks, which takes slightly longer, but he too values relaxation time. A third pig chooses to build a home out of bricks, which requires a great deal of time and effort. He values taking the time to build a home properly over relaxation and recreation. When the Big Bad Wolf comes to the homes, only the third pig's house of bricks stands up to the pressure applied by the wolf.

When I asked for the moral of the story... well that was definitely the most entertaining (for me st least😂)

• ​Miss the moral is Don’t eat pigs!
  
• Straw doesn’t make a good house!
  
• Listen to your mummy!
  
• Don’t trust wolves!
  

All valid points... but we decided in the end that the moral was that Hard work pays off!

They stamped their brick walls, drew and cut out pigs and of course designed outfits fit for their smart little pig!
