Activity for Folk Tales

Make a diorama of a favorite folk tale scene with your partner.

You will need: a small box (shoe boxes work well), cardboard, construction paper, pipe cleaners, glue, crayons or markers, scissors, magazines, any small toy figures you may have that can be used as characters from the folk tale)

Getting started:
1.  Agree on a folk tale you like.  Figure out who the characters are.  decide were the action takes place.
2.  Share the work.  Use the box to create a scene from the story.  Place the characters (cut out drawings will do) and the scenery in the box.

Try it out:  Ask a a friend, or your teacher, if they are able to identify the story you have chosen.

Show it off:  Ask your teacher to display your work somewhere in the school.
