The skill is reviewed in the introductory slides, then two stories follow that purposely lead your students to draw the wrong conclusions! Students are praised for "jumping to conclusions" though, and careful reading is reinforced. In my classroom, I've often followed this up with a writing lesson. Students unders

Fractured Fairy Tales - COMPLETE UNIT with rubrics, handouts and powerpoints
One of my favorite units to do with my 6th grade gifted language arts class is my month-long Fractured Fairy Tale unit. The reason I love it so much is because of how much it has blossomed over the years. It went from a simple unit to something much more complex, including a brief study of the psychology that goes into creating fairy tales. This unit is aligned to Bloom's Taxonomy. I included an overview showing the correlation for each activity.How I Use the Products:I begin the unit with s
