Materials:

 Story, Cinderella (any version will do)


 Chart paper, markers
 Story frame paper

Objectives:

Students will write a narrative using beginning, middle and end to entertain, educate or persuade

Students will use appropriate media to communicate to a specific audience

Pre-Writing:

Brainstorming: Students will think about their favourite fairy tales and in small groups talk about what
their favourites are. They will then discuss what they believe fairy tales have in common: beginning,
"Once upon a time, ...", characters (elves, magic, protagonist, antagonist, talking animals, etc),
settings, and problems, then make jot notes on chart paper about these commonalities to share in
front of the class.

Students will hear the fairy tale, Cinderella. Ask students to listen for whether the story is
written in past, present, or future tense. 

Writing/Instruct/Model:

As a group, students will help identify if the story, Cinderella, is a fairy tale based on the criteria in
their brainstorming: referencing the beginning (talking characters, magical setting), middle (good vs
evil problem), end (good conquers evil) using a story frame. Did they notice the beginning? Point
out that almost all fairy tale have the same beginning: "Once upon a time, ...". Ask them if
they know what tense that sets the story up for? past, present, or future? (Past)

Guided Practise:

Students will go back into their groups and re-write the story of Cinderella using Story Frame paper
(8 blocks/frames to jot ideas down in sequence).  Teacher will mill around to assist the students in
organizing their stories and only including the important details that will help keep the story on track
and fit in the 8 frames. And, reminding them to use, "Once upon a time, ..." and the past tense
of verbs.

Independent Practise:

Using their own favourite fairy tale, and Cinderella is an option as well for those unfamiliar with fairy
tales, students will write out a Story Frame to retell it in organized jot note form.

Post-Writing:
Students will share their Story Frames with peers to see if their stories are organized and resemble a
fairy tale. (Did students mention the protagonist, antagonist, magical setting, talking animals,
problem, solution)

Assessment Criteria:

(B) characters (protagonist, antagonist, talking animals), setting (magical setting)

(M) problem (evil attempts to conquer)

(E) solution (good outdoes evil)

organized coherently
