Fractured Fairy Tales

Fractured Fairy Tales

Goldilocks and The Three Bears

and 

Santa Clause and The Three Bears 

We have been learning about fractured fairy tales. What are they you might ask? Well, it’s a change/alternation on a classic fairy tale. 

We read the original fairy tale ‘Goldilocks and the Tree Bears’. Many students could recite the lines from the fairy tale. Then, we read ‘Santa Clause and the Tree Bears’ which was a silly take on the original fairy tale. There was no Goldilocks, in her place was Santa! There was also polar bears instead of brown bears. The porridge turned to pudding and Santa stayed around at the end of the book to hand out presents. 

First, we must prepare the props.

Papa, Mama, and Baby Bears chairs 

"This bed is too hard"

"This bed is too soft"

"This bed is just right"

"This porridge is too hot"

Sadie and the Snowman

Sadie and the Snowman

One of our favorite winter selections. We will read this book several times over the next few months. Sadie makes a snowman who becomes her friend. She is sad when she realizes that the snowman will melt. She comes up with a plan! Sadie makes a mini snowman and freezes it for the next snow fall!

What do you think we did?? 

We collected snow of course! 

I wonder what happens to snow when it is brought inside?

MELTS!

That's ok, we will put it in the freezer for the next snow fall! Maybe it will be tomorrow?
