The many possibilities CREATING A FAIRY TALE

WHAT IS A FAIRY TALE? “A fairy tale is a fictional story that may feature folkloric characters (such as fairies, goblins, elves, trolls, witches, giants, and talking animals) and enchantments, often involving a far-fetched sequence of events. The term is also used to describe something blessed with unusual happiness, as in "fairy tale ending" (a happy ending) or "fairy tale romance," though not all fairy tales end happily. Fairy tales are a genre in literature. They have their roots in the oral tradition. Fairy tales with very similar plots, characters, and motifs are found spread across many different cultures. Fairy tales also tend to take on the color of their location, through the choice of motifs, the style in which they are told, and the depiction of character and local color.”

The students will research and create their own fairy tale to be presented to the classroom. Parents will be invited to the presentations of the fairy tales. Before creating his own fairy tale, a student must:  Research different components of fairy tales to understand the need for conflict, resolution, and the idea of main characters.  Write a fairy tale story using Microsoft Word and obtain teacher approval.  Use Microsoft PowerPoint and create a Fairy Tale to be created for the enjoyment of the younger students within the school. YOUR OWN FAIRY TALE: YOUR OWN IMAGINATION

Themes for this include:discrimination, stereotyping, oppression,and patriarchy.  Historical Analysis This idea is a way to see tales as a condition to preserve history, legends, or cultures ofa society.  Moral Lessons Most Fairy Tales end with a lesson about good/bad, right/wrong, orperseverance/triumph
