Fairy Tales
By Nicole

Clip to ScrapBook   
In a Children's Literature class I am taking, we recently did a project involving the fairy tale of Cinderella. There are many versions of the story out there. (My professor had about 25 different books!) What we did was to get into groups and each group read a different version. (Caribbean, Russian, African, etc...) (You might need to read the "classic" version to your students first.) Then we compared the versions from other places to "our, classic" version. It was really interesting to see the way the stories changed from one culture to the next. Hope this helps.
