We've launched the most ADORABLE Balanced-Literacy Fairy Tale Unit! I couldn't help myself...I had to post some photos from the first few days of our unit. I am splitting fairy tales up into two weeks (which will make for one LARGE unit) 1. Princesses/Royalty (Cinderella, Rupunzel, etc...) 2. Folk Stories (3 Little Pigs, Goldilocks, Etc..) Here are some PRINCESS/ROYALTY Sneak Peaks! Here is how we are keeping track of our fairy tale features. Each time we read a story we check it off here and in our fairy tale folders. A follow up for shared writing: Writing Invitations for the Royal Ball Look at bottom left: She included a menu. LOL After reading Cinderella and Sidney Rella, we made glass slippers and sneakers. Then, we decided that we needed to have a "chat" with Ms. Cinderella. =) Shared Writing: We practiced writing summaries and identifying the most important parts. We negotiated these parts together and I was the scribe. Mapping the Royal Kingdom! Point of View: We ALWAYS think about the main characters...lets take some time to think about the other characters' points of view! The Cinder-Stories we'll study. Rumpelstiltskin Math Activity! We graphed our names and compared them to the length of Rumpelstiltskin! I have had SO much fun creating these so far, and I'm only three days in! The unit will have much more balanced literacy packed in. Until then,

Fairy Tale STEM Activity - Goldilocks and the Three Bears Try a hands-on STEM challenge with Goldilocks and the Three Bears! This STEM activity is designed for lower elementary kids. I am so excited to share some details about it! STEM tales introduce the youngest budding engineers to STEM, by taking a familiar story and using it to walk through the engineering design process. Do you love telling and re-telling stories with your kids? Do you ever change the ending to spice it up a bit? That's exactly what STEM tales is all about! Integrate Literacy and STEM with Fairy Tales The 8-page book provides an alternative ending to this story. Your students need to help make a bed for Goldilocks. Goldilocks is simply a printed out figure, which you can add weigh to with either small masses, pennies, or washers. Using whatever crafting materials you have handy (index cards and tape are really all that is needed, but feel free to use other supplies as well), create a new bed for Goldilocks. The Testing Phase of the STEM Challenge Is the bed large enough? Will it hold the weight of the figure? You will be surprised at the designs your students come up with! Designing and creating a bed for Goldilocks is a way for students to bring the fairy tale alive. After you have tested out the beds, it's time to introduce the bear family to the challenge (mama, papa, and baby, who is the same size as Goldilocks). You will add heavier weights to mama and papa bear, and then test the designs again. This is a great way to demonstrate why it's important to know your design criteria before starting a STEM challenge! Mama bear may fit on some and not others, or papa bear may fit but weigh too much and collapse the bed. Get the Goldilocks Fairy Tale STEM Challenge Here is the link to the full resource. In addition to all the steps above, the 8-page story book guides students through the engineering design process and also includes a self-evaluation check list.
