Jack and the beanstalk (2)

After quite a while Jack and his mother had used up all their gold.

"What will we do now?" sighed Jack's mother.

Jack decided to climb the beanstalk again. This time he knew the way and as soon as he was in the castle, he hid in a good hiding place.

  • Think of a good place and draw Jack hiding there.
LO 3.2.5

The giant came into the castle. He had been hunting. He put down his gun and called his maid to bring him something to drink. Then he asked for his goose. He began talking to and stroking the goose. After a while, Jack saw that the goose had laid an egg. But this egg was no ordinary egg. It was made of gold.

As soon as the giant took his morning nap, Jack crept out and stole the goose. He ran towards the beanstalk and climbed down.

His mother was delighted.

"Now we shall never go hungry because we will always have eggs to eat," she said.

"Not these eggs, Mother!" said Jack. And he showed her the golden eggs.

Jack and his mother settled down very happily for quite a long time.

Questions for discussion:

1. Jack is stealing from the giant. Is this right?

2. Do you think the story should have a happy ending for Jack?

3. How would you end the story?
