- Briefly review Flip Book images of the different fairy tales presented
in this domain: “The Princess and the Pea,” “Cinderella,” and “Snow

in common.” Allow thirty seconds for students to talk. Call on two
volunteers to share. - Point out that the endings of all the fairy tales are similar—the
princess and the prince live “happily ever after.” - Have students choose one of the fairy tales and think of a different
“happily ever after” ending. [You may need to provide several
examples of different endings.] - Have students draw their alternate ending. Choose a few students to
dictate what they have drawn. Be sure to read to the students what
you have written s.
➶ Above and Beyond: If they are able, have each student label or write
a short sentence about his/her pictures. - As students finish their drawings, group them into small groups
according to the particular fairy tale they have chosen, and have them
share their different endings. Encourage them to make comments
about how their endings may be similar or different from each other.
