  Primary Three 

This activity has been involved the pupils of Primary Three. The fist aim to help children to develop the sense of themselves and their self-esteem. The second aim is to help children recognize their own deep-seated fears and solve them. Pupils analysed the fairy tale "Hansel and Gretel". Then they made two hats:witch's and fairy's ones. They wrote their fears on little pieces of paper and put them in the wictch's hat. Later, they wrote the solutions of their fears with teacher's and classmates'support. The solutions were put into the fairy's hat. The children grew up thanks to solving their own troubles. They created a big and tall tree to show their growing up..

Jack, the gnome, I am

and I like ham.

I clean the fairy wood,

red is my hood.

To magic animals I can speak

and I live on the peak.

I am always glad,

I am never sad.

I’m Annie, I’m three

and children are afraid of me.

My friend is Jack

and my cat is black.

Magic spells I say

and with a flying broom I play.

Ugly is my dress,

my bedroom is a mess.

The Cheese Ghost am I,

I can fly.

I’m funny,

my friend is Annie.

A yellow hat I’m wearing,

but I’m scaring.

I across the walls

and play with balls.

The Cake

Once upon a time, two kings, Valentino II and Alessandro I, lived peacefully in a castle next to a little nice lake. There was a lot of woods and fields nearby.

The monster Alfatrac lived near the woods. He was greedy for sweets and children.

Kings’ knights tried to fight and overcome the monster. The witches and the magicians weren’t able to find the solution, too.

The two kings called Mohammed. He was strong and brave and frightened Alfatrac, but he wasn’t able to win the monster.

One day kings Valentino II and Alessandro I called the cook Gianduia. He cooked a delicious chocolate and cream cake. He poured a magic potion into the cake. When Alfatrac bit it, he changed into a lovely and friendly butterfly.
