The Little Red Hen class 2 - MIE
by Mauritius Institute of Education"The Little Red Hen" adapted by the English Department at the Mauritius Institute of Education for Grade 2 presents a classic story of diligence and cooperation. The tale revolves around a resourceful little red hen living on a farm, seeking assistance from her friends—a dog, a cat, and a duck—in various tasks from planting seeds to baking bread. However, each time she asks for help, her friends decline, preoccupied with their own pursuits. Undeterred, the hen independently tends to the chores, culminating in baking a loaf of bread, which she then chooses to enjoy alone. Through engaging illustrations and simple narrative, the story underscores the values of hard work, self-reliance, and the consequences of not lending a hand. The book, designed for interactive classroom sessions, encourages critical thinking among young readers by prompting discussions on sharing, teamwork, and the importance of helping others, fostering essential literacy skills and moral understanding among Grade 2 students.
