We painted the bears’ home red and blue with a big window. We painted two brown trees and added actual leaves and branches from our playground to enhance our scenery. We drew lots of inspiration from watching short videos of other children performing plays and reading other retellings of the story such as Leola and the Honey Bears which is an African-American version of the story by Melodye Rosales and The Three Bears by Paul Galdone whose writing includes a spunky, gap-toothed Goldilocks.Īfter researching, we decided to make the setting in a forest. The favorite ones are when the characters in the story include some of our Leapfrogs! We stocked our reading corner with diversity of fairytales to encourage the spark that was lit.Īfter reading Goldilocks and the Three Bears by James Marshall, Leapfrogs were committed to create a production. Jerri loves to share a variety fairy tales with the children during morning meeting, transition times or even afternoon relaxation time. The fairy tale spark came from teacher Jerri.
