“Yeh-Shen” & “Sootface” Cinderella Stories

Folktale Folktales were stories passed down from generation to generation by word of mouth, which is called oral tradition. Folktales were made up to explain the wonders of the world (why the sun shines and the moon comes out at night) or to teach morals and lessons.

Examples of folktales fairytales fables myths pourqoui stories trickster tales

Fairytales Include good and evil characters Usually has a hero or heroine Has Magic Often begins with “Once upon a time” Conflicts are resolved through kindness, courage or intelligence Examples: Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Aladdin

Fables These are stories that teach a lesson or have a moral The main characters of Fables are usually animals with human characteristics The moral is never stated, but needs to be inferred by the reader Examples of Fables: Tortoise and the Hare, The Ant and the Grasshopper

Common Elements of Folktales Rule of Three: Items happen in sets of 3 or 7s (things happen in 3s, lots of repetition or repeated phrases) - 3 characters - 3 events - 3 tests the character must overcome Ex: “Jack and the Beanstalk” showed Jack climbing the beanstalk three times. The wicked stepmother visited Snow White in the forest three times before she finally got her to eat the apple. Magic is commonly used, to explain the unexplainable. You will see similar characteristics from stories across the world (Cinderella versions from around the world)
