In order to be prepared
to share your project with the class and at our
Story Telling to Parents Night, you will have to
complete the following steps.
Reread
each of the six fairytales and decide which
fairytale you are going to retell. You can read
the fairytale from the book copies we have in the
class or you can go on the Internet and
read/listen to each story. Here are
your choices:
Cinderella
Little Red
Riding Hood Readable
Little Red Riding Hood
Snow White
Jack and the
Beanstalk Readable
Jack and the Beanstalk
Three Little
Pigs
Goldilocks
and the Three Bears
The Gingerbread Man
After you have
decided which fairytale you are going to retell, think
about who the main character is. Write down the
main character’s name.
_____________________________________________
Think about the
problems that the main character had to face. Write
down at least one, but not more than three problems.
___________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________
Think about what the
main character did to solve the problem or to get out of
trouble. Write the answer here:
___________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________
Think about how the
main character’s choice determined the ending to the
story. Write the answer here:
___________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________
Think about what you
would do differently if you were the main character and
how your choice of action would change the ending of the
story. Write your answer here.
____________________________________________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________
Now you are ready to
rewrite your fairytale. Use ALL the answers
that you wrote down on theses pages to help you write
your own fairytale.
Once you have
rewritten your fairytale with the new ending, you may
draw at least one, but not more than three different
pictures to illustrate your new fairytale.
Now
make a cover page for your new fairytale.
Remember to make a title page with your name
as author and illustrator. Ask an adult
or an older student to help you bind your
pages into a book. Practice telling
your rewritten story and showing your book so
that you will be ready to present it for
Parent Story Night.
