Explore straw, twigs and building blocks as each house goes up, then let your learners send the wolf’s mighty puff towards the straw with a fan, balloon or switch-adapted hair dryer. When the wolf tumbles down the chimney, he lands in a pot of cold, slimy pigswill. Keep it simple with a few familiar props or build a richer session with sounds, movement and messy play. Choose what suits your learners and give them time to explore, respond and show you what they enjoy.
Waiting for the wolf’s knock, asking for more huffing and puffing or choosing a sandwich, cheese or a drink all create chances to practise communication and turn-taking. The repeated pattern helps learners predict what comes next and join in, and a switch-adapted fan or a recorded “Little pig, little pig!” lets them start the action themselves. The story also opens up conversations about trying your best and about moving on to a new home. Ready to go further? Try building houses from different materials or matching pigs to their homes.
Learners can access the on-screen story using touch, a mouse, switches or eye gaze. Choose the access method that works for them so they can take an active role. Away from the screen, joining in might mean looking towards a prop, feeling the straw, knocking on a tray, making a sound or communicating “more” or “stop”. Follow each learner’s responses and enjoy the story at their pace.
