Unit Walkthrough: Fairy Tales
A few weeks ago on the Brave New Teaching Podcast, we had an episode where we did a Unit Makeover on a short story unit I teach in my classroom.
This unit uses fairy tales as the central texts, and since the episode dropped I have had MANY requests for a more in-depth look at the unit... so here it is!
In this video you’ll see:
My overall structure for this unit
The gateway activity I use to grab student attention
The versions of Cinderella I use for all-class texts and jigsaw activities
The summative writing assessment that ties it all together
