Our Fairytales Unit has taught us so much! The Twosies have learned all about the elements and history of fairytales. They have learned about the differences between the oral folktale genre and current fractured fairytales. We read many traditional, modern, and fractured versions of our favorite fairytales and compared and contrasted them. We were also able to look at how versions of the same fairytale changed based on the country/region where the story was told. Some of the Twosies even wrote their own!
They conducted and reported their own research on knights, castles, dragons, and royalty. Through this research they were able to explore nonfiction text features, become familiar with many different resources including the internet, and learn about summarizing and notetaking.
Here are the groups' final products:
