Fairy Tales



Once upon a time... there is a teacher who loves to teach fairy tales.  She loves to read the real story and then many other stories that match that particular fairy tale.   Ok OK its hard to write a blog post in 3rd person or is it 4th.  So let me get right to it.


For the past 2 weeks we have been studying about Fairy Tales.... Our children know that Fairy Tales have specific story elements.  These story elements are as follows.

Most Fairy Tales have the following in them...

Once upon a time, Long Long Ago, or Once Long Ago
They lived happily ever after... The End
Royalty
3 or 7 of something
Magic- a spell, talking animals or fairies, goblins,
Good vs. Evil
Secret Word: Fairy Tales


Every Story has

Setting with a time and a place
Characters- either people or animals
Problem- something happened
Solution
