Today we talked about perspective in storytelling. We read two books:
"I am the Dog, I am the Cat" which described the world through the eyes of a dog and a cat.
The other "The True Story of the Three Little Pigs" retold the fairy tale of the "Three Little Pigs" from the perspective of a misunderstood wolf.
For tomorrow make sure your group has chosen a fairy tale to retell through the perspective of a different character in the story. You only need to retell a small part of the fairy tale.
Be prepared to come to class with ideas to write.
If you are not familiar with fairy tales, here are a few links:
