Guest Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 My friend is going for an interview for assessment co-ordinator. As part of her interview she has to read a story with a clear moral to either: a) a group of reception children or a group of year 1 children I would appreciate some more suggestions, to the ones I have offered already! Many thanks Becky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 Hi Beckyann, I don't know what stories you have already but I like using The Boy Who Cried Wolf - and the children love to join in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnonyMouse_4544 Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 How about Jamaica's find? What should she do with the things she finds? Why is it wrong to keep things that dont belong to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 Shirley Hughes' 'Alfie lends a hand' show two clearly contrasting behaviours at a birthday party. It's a lovely story to read and children relate to it well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_4177 Posted June 10, 2006 Share Posted June 10, 2006 We have a story called 'What's Naughty'?' can't remember author - about two boys who do all sorts of things, throw stuff at the next door neighbour, mess up bedroom etc At the end of story mum tells the collecting mum the children have been 'fine'. I like it because you can encourage children to describe the different 'naughty ' behaviour using words that are more specific (unkind for example) Also think you could use Goldilocks, Beware of the Bears, Red Riding Hood Little Red Hen, as start points for discussion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
