THE GIANT'S CAUSEWAY

Today we've learnt the legend about the Giant's Causeway.

The Giant's Causeway linked Ireland and Scotland.

In Ireland, there was an enormous giant called Finn McCool. He was really big! Look at his boot below! (You can see it in The Giant's Causeway in Ireland)



Finn McCool built the causeway to walk to Scotland to fight his Scottish counterpart Benandonner.



The day of the fight, Finn McCool fell asleep.



Benandonner crossed the bridge to meet Finn in Ireland.

Benandonner arrived at Finn's house but Finn was not at home.


Finn's wife saw that Benandonner was bigger than Finn and she had a brilliant idea! She dressed sleepy-Finn as a baby!



When Benandonner saw how big the 'infant' was, he assumed his father, Finn, must be gigantic!


Therefore, Benandonner went back home in terror, destroying the Causeway in case he was followed by Finn.


JUSTIN BIEBER - BABY

Our 4th B graders asked me to practice this song in class. How about some home practice in the meanwhile?

HELLO / GOODBYE
