The Seven dwarfs

Today we have been learning about adjectives (describing words). We thought about the dwarfs in the story Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and what their names mean. Some children were given a picture of one of the dwarfs and some were given a finger puppet of one of the dwarfs. Then we had to find the person who had the same dwarf as us. We talked about how we knew which dwarf it was. Matthew recognised Sneezy because of his red nose and Blue could see that Grumpy had a "cross face." We talked about Bashful and what bashful means. We know it means shy, and we talked about why his cheeks are red. Dopey had a funny face with his tongue sticking out!

After that we sat in a circle and took it in turns to pretend to be one of the dwarfs in the middle of the circle. Everyone else had to guess who we were! Doc was tricky because he's a doctor, but the others (Sleepy, Sneezy, Happy, Grumpy, Bashful and Dopey) were a bit easier!

We weren't allowed to speak, but had to use our faces and our bodies to show which dwarf we were. Can you work out from some of these pictures which dwarf we are being?
