Homework: Students should read through "The Ugly Duckling" in the fairy tale packet that they received and be prepared to take a short quiz on it tomorrow and to discuss it in class.
Also, tomorrow is "Fairytale Day." We will be discussing the origins of many of our modern fairytales, as well as why stories given in the oral tradition are important pieces of history. If they would like, students can bring "fairytale"-themed snacks and drinks for everyone to consume.

In today's class, we discussed the origin of folklore and fairytale, including several examples of local lore and legend. Tomorrow, we will be reading through several examples of fairytales from The Brothers Grimm and we will use them to discuss finding the main idea and summarizing passages adequately.
