activities and student activities
Begin by reviewing what a folktale, fairy tale, and fable are. Have students give
examples of each and explain why they fit each category. Remember: a fairy tale is
always a folktale, but a folktale is not always a fairy tale.
Tell students you are going to start by listening to a fairy tale called Cinderella.
Show them the worksheet that you will be using after the story so that they are
aware of what they need to be listening for during the story.
Listen to the story on tape. Have the book and show the pages under the ELMO as
the story is being read, OR hold the book up in front of the class.
After the story is over, pass out the castle worksheet. Since this is their first time
using it, explain each part and what it means. Ex: Setting is where the story takes
place.
Call students to work in pairs. Make sure that students are paired with other
appropriate students that they can work well with.
