Hopefully you have had great fun learning the main features of our class story Little Red Riding Hood and have been joining in with the actions.

As part of our Talk 4 Write lesson today we had to spot the patterns in our story – Little Red Riding Hood.

With the help of our magic glasses we have been able to ‘box up the text‘.  This means we have been able to identify the key parts of the warning tale and where in our story they area.

A warning tale has the following features:

• The Main Character (MC) is given a warning.
• The MC does something they are warned not to do.
• Something goes wrong as a result of ignoring the warning and the MC is in trouble.
• The MC is character is rescued.
• The MC is is punished or told off for not listening to the warning.

Now, discuss which parts of the story belong in which section?
