P3 Listening&Speaking Module - The Wolf's Story 7

Imagine yourself as Mr Wolf, the handyman. When you wake up, you are going to tell the reporters what happened after the incident with the pigs.

You may tell them about your intention , feelings or friends . In groups of four, you will prepare a short speech on what you are going to tell the reporters.

Remember to use contractions and the past tense as the incident was in the past. Now, slowly open your eyes and convince the reporters that you were not harming the pigs at all.

P3 Listening&Speaking Module - The Wolf's Story 8

I heard from my friend, Pinnochio, that the pigs needed help to mend a hole in their houses.

So I rushed to Piggy One’s straw house immediately.

I am a handyman so people pay me for my service.

But Piggy One thought I was going to trick him.

So I blew his house down to show that a gust of wind could destroy his straw house.

The wolf is trying to tell the reporters to take note of the actions.

SAMPLE

Prepare a short speech on what you are going to tell the reporters.

Remember to use contractions and the past tense.

I am innocent ! 

I was just trying to be helpful but nobody is listening to me.

I wanted to tell the pigs that the house is not sturdy enough.

The chimney didn’t look sturdy enough to withstand strong wind so I climbed up to check it out.

Then, I saw smoke coming out of the chimney and heard screams by the piggies. I took a peek into the chimney and decided something was terribly wrong. I’d wanted to help and quickly slid down the chimney to see what had happened. The next thing I knew was my fur was singed in a pot of hot water. I never knew water could be that hot and struggled to get out of the pot before bolting out of the front door.

As I was running to rid myself of the stinging pain, I heard taunting jeers by the piggies behind me.
