Weekly Exploration Activity

Cinderella Around the World Exploration Activity

Cinderella is a classic fairy tale story. Around the world, many cultures and countries have adapted and changed the story of Cinderella to reflect their culture and their beliefs.

For example, the glass slipper Cinderella wears is different in other countries. Slippers are not a shoe found in all countries, at least not the pointy high heel version we are used to.

This week, along with your normal learning videos, there is over 18 versions of Cinderella from throughout the world on the week 7 reading folder.

We are going to do a special project this week. You should have gotten a "Cinderella Writing project book", After you read Yeh-Shen, read the stories from the packet and answer the questions. Then go back to the reading page week 7 folder and watch at least 3 more stories.

Pick your four favorite stories. Then you will go to the four graphic organizers in your Cinderella writing project practice. Write each place's name on the top of the page. Fill one out for each country.'

Then you will go to the last writing page. Decide which version of Cinderella you read or watched that was your favorite. Write an opinion page with 5 sentences about why it is your favorite version. Make sure to have lots of specific details.

With your family, see if you have any different versions of Cinderella to watch. See how that one is different.

Have fun exploring the world this week through reading!!!!
