This is a narrative writing activity that requires students to create a new version of a classic fairy tale. They tell the story through a different character's perspective.

Fairy Tales do belong in the upper elementary/ middle school grades, just with a twist. This creative writing activity requires students to use fairy tales as a guide to write a story from the perspective of a different character.

Objectives include:
- Students show they understand the elements of a fairy tale
- Students learn about different perspectives
- Students write a traditional story with a twist by writing from a different perspective
- Students use appropriate conventions while writing
- Students analyze character traits to develop their writing
- Students use appropriate paragraphing with details

This download includes an original fractured fairy tale written by me, teacher directions, student directions, student organizers/planners, student rubric, cover pages for a class book, cover pages for individual student books and a list of websites to use for traditional and fractured fairy tales. (Use any or all of the pages.)
