Guidelines & How To:

Creating The Kid’s Book

for theGlobal Cinderella

Tale Unit

Requirements

Congratulations!If you are previewing this PowerPoint your

group has selected the Kid’s book as the presentation choice for The Global Cinderella Tale Unit assignment.

Guidelines

The following are the MUST HAVES in order to complete your booklet:

(Must Haves: are the essential components your book must contain in order to receive a B+.)

*Of course originality, additional information and or graphics will receive a higher grade (see rubric for details).

**Missing components or failure to complete booklet will result in a lower

grade.

Guidelines

Before you begin, as a group, choose one of your countries’ Cinderella Tales to animate or cartoon.

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO DO ALL THREE, AND BECAUSE OF TIME CONSTRAINTS I CAN NOT GIVE YOU EXTRA CREDIT FOR DOING MORE THAN ONE.

Guidelines

SIDE NOTE: CLARIFICATIONWhat’s the difference between animate and cartoon. (Samples at end of presentation)

Animate: uses still shots (clip art and photos -like a slide show) to animate the tale with word frames in between.

Cartoon: Using on-line cartooning like http://www.toondoo.com to present the tale.

GUIDELINESSIDE NOTE-ClarificationAll three complete Cinderella tales, from the countries you

picked, must appear in the book, but only one will be animated/cartooned. The other two will just be the tale (typed or copied and pasted) in it entirety with the correct credit to source of origins.

(You may not use a hyperlink!)

Note: Because of this requirement there is no set page limit as the

length of the three tales, and background information, will determine the page number of your book.

Kid’s book guidelines

1. Title of Book and authors’ names or group name2. A brief introduction/summary of the Cinderella

Tales covered in book.3. Cultural background summaries of the three

countries (i.e. population, map of country, major religion, clothing, food, etc) from which your tales originated.

This can be before or after each tale or in a section of its own, but it must be in the book.

Guidelines

The Maiden and the Fishby Consiglieri Pedroso (1882, Portugal)

ONCE there was a widower who had three daughters. The two eldest thought of nothing but dress and finery, and going to amusements, or sitting at the window doing nothing; whilst the youngest occupied herself with the household management, and was fond of assisting the servant in the kitchen, and for which reason her sisters called her the "Hearth-Cat."

One day the father caught a fish and brought it home alive, and as the youngest daughter was the one who occupied herself in cooking, and was besides his favorite child, he gave her the fish to prepare for their supper.

As the fish was alive, and she took a great liking to it on account of its pretty yellow color, she placed it in a large pan with water, and begged her father to allow her to keep it for herself, and not kill it.

As soon as the father consented to her keeping it, she at once took it to her own room and gave it plenty of water to swim in; and when the sisters saw what had been done with the fish they began to cry out and complain that, for the sake of pleasing the "Hearth-Cat," they were to be deprived of eating that excellent fish.

The moment the sisters left for the palace the maiden went to the well to see the fish, who said to her the moment he saw her, "Oh, maiden! Will you marry me?" The maiden replied, "I cannot possibly marry a fish!" but he so entreated her, and urged his suit so ardently, that she at last consented. That very instant the fish was transformed into a man, who said to her, "Know, then, that I am a prince who was enchanted here, and am the son of the sovereign who governs these realms.

Review

So you get the gist of the project.

Using the Cinderella Tales from the countries your group picked you will chose one (1) to illustrate, either with cartoons or pictures and clip art, and the other two will appear in your book in text form only. Your book will also include cultural information about the country of these tales, as well as the MLA bibliography.
