Fill In The Blanks: Bad Jelly The Witch

BAD JELLY THE WITCH – CLOZE ACTIVITY

Their Daddy was a fisherman.  He caught fish in a big lake near their house,

their  Mummy used to bake lovely fresh bread for them and in the evenings, by the

fire she would play the trombone for them.  They had a fluffy cat called fluffy-bum,

a white puppy dog called Pom Pom who was very clever and could play the piano

with his tail.  Every morning Tim and Rose used to go to Lucy their cow, to get some

milk for their breakfast, but!  When they got to the shed where Lucy lived, the door

was open and Lucy was gone!  So the children ran to the field where Lucy used to

eat the grass, and shouted “Lucyyyyyyyy!  Where are you!”  But there was no sign of Lucy

anywhere!

“Look Rose” said Tim, and point to the ground where they could see Lucy’s hoof

marks in the mud.

“Let’s follow them and see where she’s gone” said Rose.  They started to walk and

follow the hoof marks.  They  walked and walked and walked.  “Are you getting tired?”

said Tim.  “Only my legs” said Rose.  After a long while the children came to a big forest,

with very big trees, some as tall as a church and some as thick as their teachers legs at school.

There was still no sign of Lucy their cow.  

“It’s getting very dark and night time” said Rose.  “We better go home , or Mummy and

Daddy will be worried about us.”  Tim said “No!  We must find Lucy first or she might get lost

forever and we would never have milk on our porridge again!”

Rose said “Alright.”  So on they went into the great black forest, but it got so dark they

couldn’t see where to go.
