inspiring education
Students will develop competencies in literacy through
reading and writing fairy tales.
They must be creative in order to create an engaging and
authentic fairy tale.
Group work is incorporated throughout the unit, helping
students to acquire skills in communication and leadership.
Students are becoming aware of different cultures, their
history and forms of communication.
As the students are creating a video at the end of the unit,
they are expanding their knowledge of digital literacy.
All of the skills and competencies they are obtaining through
this unit will help students succeed in their future careers and
lives once they leave school

ASSESSMENT
Formative: Students will be assessed continually
throughout all parts of this unit. For example, at
the play stations, students will have a graphic
organizer where they make connections and this
will be reviewed by the teacher and students will
be given written and oral feedback regularly, both
individually, in small and large group formats.
Summative: As a class, the students, with guidance
from the teacher and various experts, will
collaboratively create rubrics for assessment for
each task, while the teacher ensures that crucial
criteria are included.
Und wenn sie nicht gestorben sind, dann leben sie noch heute
