Fun with Fractured Fairytales WebQuest: Teacher Resources

Web Resources

The following are the sequencing of the digital media tools as found in the Symbaloo Lesson Plan:

Book Resources

Here there are various examples of stories that you can use to show the classic versions of the fairy tale, the cultural retellings, or the fractured/modern fairy tale.

One great thing about this unit is that you can teach it one way with a certain group of mentor texts like the ones mentioned above.  Then you can switch it up and change the fairy tale comparison.  This individualizes each student's learning.  

For example, first you may just want the students to learn about the fairy tale elements before adding anything else.  In that case,  you would only compare and contrast different types of classic fairy tales.  Then you could later add the modern retellings and fractured fairy tales as students become more familiar with the subject matter.

Fairy tales are so popular, you undoubtedly have a great selection of them at any library.  Just look for the 398s.
