Dear 2H,
It's great to be back at school after what seems like a very long holiday!
Here is your Literacy homework for this week:
In class we have begun a study of traditional stories from around the world by reading a number of versions of 'Chicken Licken', also sometimes known as 'Chicken Little' or 'Henny Penny'. We have discussed how traditional stories can be told in many different ways - sometimes with quite different endings - and that they often have a moral - something that the story teaches us.
Here is another version of the story:

Think about the story and answer the following questions in your homework book:
Why do you think Chicken Little thought the sky was falling?
Who is your favourite character and why?
Which character don’t you like and why?
What lesson does this story teach you?
How does this version of the story end?
The animals in the story have silly names like Cocky-locky, Ducky-daddles, and Goosey-poosey. Can you come up with some silly names for other animals like cats or dogs?
