Fractured Fairy Tales
Posted by Karen EngelkeThe second grade recently completed a writing unit on Fractured Fairy Tales, traditional fairy tales which have been slightly altered to create a new twist. Traditional stories like The Three Little Pigs may be altered and rewritten to become The Three Little Wolves and the Big Bad Pig. We read a number of fractured fairy tales, many of which are quite inventive. We then discussed the many features of these altered tales and took a stab at writing one of our own. We went through the whole writing process before arriving at our finished piece. We shared our inventive tales with first grade and third grade in order to give our work the credit it deserved. Fractured fairy tales such as The Broccoli Man, The Three Little Owls, The Three Big Bad Wolves, and The Three Little Purple Hippos to name a few, were well received and enjoyed by all.
