Work with your class to get the story of the Little Red Hen in order.
If you want to print this activity at the end you’ll need to allow pop-ups before you start. Let us know if you have any problems!
In this section:
Colours and shapes
Get your children to colour in an outline of the Little Red Hen, or use our new interactive painting activity below (If you’re planning to print or share you’ll need to allow pop-ups before starting).
You can download a picture of the Little Red Hen here.
You can use the outline of the Little Red Hen, either on screen or printed out, to talk about the different shapes:
- Can you point to a triangle?
- Can you see a square?
- Show me a circle?
Ask the children to count the different shapes
- How many triangles can you see?
- Can you count the squares?
- How many circles are there?
- Are there more triangles than circles?
- Are there less circles than squares?
- Which shape appears most?
- Which shape appears least?
