Jack and the Beanstalk

This 21-slide PowerPoint is a fabulous resource to use with KS1 or KS2 children. It tells the story of Jack and the Beanstalk and gives many prompts for encouraging children to talk about the different aspects of this traditional story. Questions like “Why was Mum cross?”, “What did Jack see?” and “Where would you hide?” will stimuate discussion and there are many other prompts to encourage co-operative dialogue with ‘talk partners’. The PowerPoint also has prompts to sequence the traditional story and has alterative suggestions for retelling Jack and the Beanstalk with a ‘twist’! A great resource!
