Ask the children to recite with you afamiliar nursery rhyme such as ‘Mary had a Little Lamb’, ‘Jackand Jill’ or ‘Little Miss Muffet’. Demonstrate changing therhymes into a narrative story. Encourage the children to do thesame for Humpty Dumpty. Tell the children that today the classis going to make a new Humpty Dumpty story together.Remind the children of the words ‘All the King’s men’ in therhyme, which give us an idea that our story could be set in acastle (because kings often live in castles in stories).Tell them that Humpty also lives in a room in the castle. Ask thechildren, in small groups, to draw rooms in an imaginary castle,with appropriate furniture and objects.We adapted thisactivity and usedlots of ideas from itto fit in with a‘stories fromdifferent cultures’project that washappening in theschool.Say no to bullying Years 1 and 2 © Crown copyright 2005Primary National Strategy DfES 1340-2005
Using some of these ideas, arrange your classroom with thechildren to resemble a room in a castle.Tell them that the King in the castle has lots of servants andthat they are getting ready for his big party, to which all thecharacters in Nursery Rhyme Land have been invited.Who might be coming? What jobs do they need to do to getready for this party?The children should mime these jobs with you as teacher inrole (TiR), playing the head servant, to manage this.As TiR head servant (in gossip style!), tell the children that youhave heard that the King is very cross. He invited HumptyDumpty to his party because he is fun and organises thegames, but he has had an accident so he can’t come.Do they know anything about the accident? The children shouldshare any eyewitness accounts.Tell them that you have heard that Humpty Dumpty’s fall wasn’tan accident, which people have said it was, and that he waspushed. Is this true?Is it true that one of the King’s soldiers did it, and two of themstood by and just laughed? What do you know about this?Out of role, recap the collective information, and tell them thatin the next part of the story the King visits the servants to seehow they are doing with the party preparations. He doesn’tknow yet that one of his soldiers was responsible for Humpty’saccident.The children should then go back into role as servants andmime jobs. The TiR, as the King, then comes into the castle,looks at their work, praises them for their efforts, but tells themhow unhappy he is about Humpty being silly again. The Kingsays the servants must tell Humpty that he can’t come to theparty now because his bandages will scare the other people, hewon’t be able to cut up his food and he won’t be able to danceor play the games. The King then goes away.Out of role, the children should reflect on what the King hassaid, and discuss his behaviour towards Humpty. Discuss whatthe servants should do next.How should we tell Humpty that he can’t come to the party?What should we do about those soldiers?The servants then meet Humpty and tell him what the Kingsaid. The TiR, as Humpty, tells the servants about what thesoldiers did to him, how they called him ‘Egg Head’, and howthey deliberately pushed him off the wall.Humpty explains that what really hurt him was the soldiers whostood and did nothing to help him, and just left him broken onthe floor.When talking about‘the accident’, wemade and usedHumpty jigsaws toconvey the idea of‘putting Humptyback togetheragain’13© Crown copyright 2005 Say no to bullying Years 1 and 2DfES 1340-2005Primary National Strategy
