    Oxford Level 5 Jack and the Beanstalk Written by Gill Munton and illustrated by Constanze von Kitzing Teaching notes written by Thelma Page Information about assessment and curriculum links can be found at the end of these Teaching Notes. Background to the story • Traditional tales have been told for many years. They help to keep alive the richness of storytelling language and traditions from different cultures. These tales, many of which will be familiar to the children, are rich in patterned language and provide a springboard for their own storytelling and writing. • This story is based on ‘The History of Jack and the Beanstalk’ which was first published about two hundred years ago. It is an old English folk tale. Group/Guided reading Introducing the story • Look at the cover of the book and read the title together. Ask: What is a beanstalk? What is Jack doing on the front cover? • All the words in this story are decodable for this stage. You can look together at the inside front cover for a list of the high frequency tricky words for this stage used in the book, to help build familiarity with these before children read the story independently. Reading the extended story • Read the extended story (on page 69 of the Traditional Tales Handbook) to the children. Use the pupil book to show the images to the children as you read, and pause during the story to ask questions. • Stop reading at the end of page 5. Ask: Do you think Jack’s mum will be pleased with the beans? • Pause at the end of page 7.

One morning, Barky gave no milk. She had become old. Jack’s mother was worried. Without milk, they would see horrible times. Title: Jack and the Beanstalk Page: 1 “What will we do?” she wondered. “Maybe we should sell Barky. The money could help us buy food,” suggested Jack. “Good idea, Jack. Go to the market, and see how much you could get for her,” she replied. Jack had not gotten very far when his old neighbor, Mr. Bones, approached him. “Hi, Jack,” Mr. Bones said. “Where are you going?” Title: Jack and the Beanstalk Page: 2 “I’m going to the market to sell Barky,” said Jack. “I don’t see a dog,” said Mr. Bones. “Well, I really wanted a dog. But we couldn’t afford one, so I named the cow Barky,” explained Jack. “Interesting. My dog’s name is Moo,” said Mr. Bones. “Is that because you always wanted a cow?” asked Jack. “Yes. In fact, I want your cow. So let’s make a deal. I’ll give you five beans for your cow,” answered Mr. Bones. “I don’t really like beans,” frowned Jack.

The film stars Nicholas Hoult and Ewan McGregor. The film tells the story of Jack, a young farmhand who must rescue a princess from a race of giants after accidentally opening a gateway to their world. The official Warner Bros. site says: "Unleashed on the Earth for the first time in centuries, the giants strive to reclaim the land they once lost, forcing the young man, Jack (Nicholas Hoult), into the battle of his life to stop them.…He comes face to face with the unstoppable warriors he thought only existed in legend… and gets the chance to become a legend himself." Jack the Giant Slayer has received a mixed response from film critics. The film received a 53% approval rating on the review website, Rotten Tomatoes, which wrote: "It's enthusiastically acted and reasonably fun, but Jack the Giant Slayer is also overwhelmed by its digital effects and a story so middle-of-the- road as to be a bit bland and impersonal." Conversely, Richard Roeper of the 'Chicago Sun-Times' said, "Jack the Giant Slayer is a rousing, original and thoroughly entertaining adventure." The flick didn't bring in as much cash as expected at the box office.

  • Volume One: Arthur and the History of Jack and the Giants
    The Arthuriad – Volume One CONTENTS ARTICLE 1 Jack & Arthur: An Introduction to Jack the Giant-Killer DOCUMENTS 5 The History of Jack and the Giants (1787) 19 The 1711 Text of The History of Jack and the Giants 27 Jack the Giant Killer: a c. 1820 Penny Book 32 Some Arthurian Giant-Killings Jack & Arthur: An Introduction to Jack the Giant-Killer Caitlin R. Green The tale of Jack the Giant-Killer is one that has held considerable fascination for English readers. The combination of gruesome violence, fantastic heroism and low cunning that the dispatch of each giant involves gained the tale numerous fans in the eighteenth century, including Dr Johnson and Henry Fielding.1 It did, indeed, inspire both a farce2 and a ‘musical entertainment’3 in the middle of that century. However, despite this popularity the actual genesis of Jack and his tale remains somewhat obscure. The present collection of source materials is provided as an accompaniment to my own study of the origins of The History of Jack and the Giants and its place within the wider Arthurian legend, published as ‘Tom Thumb and Jack the Giant-Killer: Two Arthurian Fairy Tales?’, Folklore, 118.2 (2007), pp. 123-40. The curious thing about Jack is that – in contrast to that other fairy-tale contemporary of King Arthur’s, Tom Thumb – there is no trace of him to be found before the early eighteenth century. The first reference to him comes in 1708 and the earliest known (now lost) chapbook to have told of his deeds was dated 1711.4 He does not appear in Thackeray’s catalogue of chapbooks

  • Maggie's Civics Corner
    Maggie’s Civics Corner Lesson 16 Maggie Says... Today’s lesson is about Leaders and Heroes. As a dog, I have many heroes in my life. The crossing guard who makes my walk safe is one of my heroes. Thinking about today’s world, I would put all of the doctors, nurses, and first- responders on my list of heroes. Sticky Situation: I love when someone reads to me. One of my favorite fairy tales is Jack and the Beanstalk. I have listened to that fairy tale many times. Every time I hear it, I wonder if Jack is a hero or a villain. Read the story below. After reading or hearing the story, do you think Jack is a hero or a villain. Be prepared to support your point of view. Jack and the Beanstalk Jack is a very poor young boy who lives in a forest with his mother. Jack and his mother have a cow. It is the cow’s milk that provides them with most of what they have to eat or drink. One day, the cow no longer is able to give milk. Jack’s mom decides that Jack should take the cow to market and sell it in exchange for money and food. As Jack starts off toward the market, he meets a man who offers him beans, magic beans, that the man says will grow very, very tall in only one night. Jack decides to give the man the cow in exchange for the magic beans. When Jack arrives home, he tells his mother what he has done, expecting her to be as excited as he is.

  • Jack the Beanstalk
    IMAGINATION CREATIVITY INNOVATION COSTUME DESIGN FOR JACK AND THE BEANSTALK FALL 2017 VOLUME IX, NUMBER 2 Jack & The Beanstalk Mother Harp Giant McKenzie Kiser and Allyson Mitchell, theatre majors at UVU, designed the costumes, set pieces, and props for our production of Jack and the Beanstalk. The design inspiration for the production is children’s backyard play. Children are natural theatre-makers and transform the places in which they play into imaginary worlds and use objects they find to enhance their dramas. They often work out conflicts in their lives through creative play. The backgrounds are designed to be ambivalent. They might represent a suburban house and a cinder block fence or they may seem to be, as a child would imagine them, a country cottage and a castle wall. A ladder and a couple of hoses become the beanstalk. Likewise, the costumes might be things that people would wear in a modern backyard or they may seem like what children would imagine people wearing long ago. Jack’s mother is dressed in what his own mother might wear in the garden. The harp’s costume extends and exaggerates the fringe someone might have on a jacket. The hands of the giant and giantess are made extra large with loose gardening In this Issue: gloves and the cow’s udder is suggested by a pink glove. In creative play, children start with what they see and enhance it with their imaginations.
