Cinderella

What little girl doesn't like a fairy tale?  Our Pre-First girls had so much fun this past week reading different versions of Cinderella.  We did many activities with the stories, including a Venn diagram comparing two stories as well as a writing activity where the girls had to pretend that they had a fairy godmother.  The girls got really creative with the writing project and one even said she would wish for a tie-dyed ball gown.  The best part of our week was when we took our first field trip to the Meyerhoff to see Cinderella in puppets set to symphony.  Here are some books that we read together: Cindy Ellen, Bigfoot Cinderella, and Egyptian Cinderella.
