Hi Dympna, I love this inquiry based activity for infants as it interlinks the story of ‘The Three little Pigs’ which I always use in my classroom when I am teaching construction as a theme in ‘Aistear’ or part of SESE (Houses/buildings/locality) etc., I also use it as part of Maths recently when children are exploring 3-D shapes for the first time using cocktail sticks and mini marshmallows. When I saw your inquiry based learning I also thought about how I could explore this activity as part of Language & Literacy not as a stand alone subject but interlinking it through oral language, reading & writing which then could lead on to interlinking this with Visual Art (create the three little Pigs houses using only crepe paper, mini lollipop sticks & red card etc.,
