“On the Fly” Fairy Tale Storytelling GameTo Prep:*Copy and cut out pages 7-10 onto cardstock. Laminate for durability.*Place all the categories (on this page) on a word space and talk about each one briefly. Then, place all your good character cards facedown in a pile beside “good characters”, all the bad character cards facedown in a pile beside “bad characters”, etc. until all your cards are in their own piles facedown.

To Play:*Players take turns picking a card from each pile and creating their own fairy tale “on the fly”. For example, a player picked little boy, thief, forest, and rescue, that player would make up an oral story including all these elements, keeping in line with a fairy tale plot (problem and solution-based).

Sorting Game: As a variation, use the categories as head words. Mix up all the cards from pgs. 7-10 in a large pile. Draw one and sort it under the correct category.
