Yum! Banana muffins for lunch!
We read the classic Dr Seuss book 'The Cat in the Hat' and then we wrote a list of our own rhyming words.
We decided to borrow "The Cat" and "The Fish" for a while and we came up with our own story...it dosn't make much sense but it was a lot of fun!
The cat in the hat
stood on a chair
He ate a nice juicy pear
and read a book about a chook
who wanted bake
a chocolate cake.
Yum! Yum!
Bake a cake
"No! No! "said the fish
"Don’t bake a cake!"
"what a terrible mess you will make!"
A mess
A mess
A terrible mess !
A date
on a plate
Some milk on your toes!
ah - choo! Ah - choo!
A sneeze in your nose!
Flour!, flour! every where!
Please take more care!
A terrible mess!
Mess!
"Make that cat go" said the fish
“ that is my only wish.
The fish got his wish
and the cat in the hat went home.

We got the part where the fish was telling the cat to go and I said that we needed a ending for our story....so Pearl said "I know! We put a full stop!" Not what I meant but I am glad she has been listening!
When we finnished our story writing we decided we were soooo hungry we had to do some baking of our own. Fortunatly we didn't make as much mess as the cat!

i love it when kids get inspired and innovate on another authors book.
your cat in the hat book looks fabulous..
it will get hours of love and devotion.. and endless re-reading.
(by the way, have you noticed that whenever ya type an apostrophe in the comments, a stupid box flashes up asking ya to *find* something? hence no apostrophe in "authors" above. blogger wont let me italicise either. aaaarrrgghhhh.
it is driving me mental.)
