Big Idea and Connections with Folktales

    We began by reading Goldilocks and the Three Bears and discussing and charting the big idea of the story. Then we made personal connections with the big idea and characters.

    Then we read Goldie and the Three Hares which is a story about what happens to Goldie after she runs away from the the three bears. We discussed and recorded the big idea and personal connections.

    Then we made connections with Goldie by writing how Goldie was a bad guest and a time we were a bad guest. Then we created hares to go with our responses.

For teachers who are interested, you can find these activities in my Bunnies, Eggs, and Chicks Learning Fun unit.
