3rd, 4th, and 5th grade: From Stretchy Library Lessons Library Skills: Recognize features of fairy tale and folktale genres.

Purpose: To help students distinguish between folktalkes, fairy tales and other fantasy books. Materials: Large sheet of paper Various titles (Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk, Tom Thumb, Days with Frog and Toad, Snow White, Goldilocks and the Three Bears, Charlotte's Web, The Three Little Pigs, Rapunzel, Rumpelstiltskin, Cinderella, Puss in Boots)

Write 398.2 in big numerals on the large sheet of paper. Display it with the titles above. 1. Discuss the characteristics fo the fantasy, folktale and fairy tale genres. Point out where in the library 398.2 lives. Fantasy - Imaginative fiction that features especially strange settigns and characters. Animal fantasy (where the animals talk), science fiction and high fiction (like the Harry Potter series) are some examples. Folktale - An anonymous, timeless and placeless talke that expresses the rituals, traditions and beliefs of a common people. Folktales are often told orally and passed down through generations. Folktales include, Goldilocks and the three Bears, The Three Little Pigs and Three Billy Goats Gruff. Fairy Tales - Stories that often involve royalty, triumph over evil, wishes, magic, etc. Characters often include trolls, witches, dragons, fairies, and other fantasy characters. Tales that were collected byt he Grimm brothers or Charles Perrault are considered fairy talkes. Hans Christian Andersen wrote original fairy tales.

2. Briefly describe each story you have pulled and ask for a show of thumbs. 3. Now that they are warmed up, use the Folktale or Fairy Tale Power Point found under the file section.

Conclude your lesson with the announcement that sometimes we find that Fairy Tales should have different endings and we call those "Fractured Fairy Tales". We will be writing fractured fairy tales in an upcoming lesson!
