Fractured Fairy Tales
We have been learning a bit about Fractured Fairy Tales in class and are just in the process of creating our own!
Fractured Fairy Tales share a lot of similarities to their original story but they often change an aspect in a key way. Here are some of the ways that they can be changed:

We have been reading some fractured fairy tales (The True Story of the 3 Little Pigs) and have seen some Youtube videos about them. 

As a class, we decided to make up our own ending to the classic Goldilocks and the 3 Bears, and added a not so happy after all ending. 


Students are either writing up and then drawing their fairy tales (Grade 4s) or creating Bitstrips about them (Grade 3s).
