So many of our students are so focused on grades and making sure they make the grades. Sometimes they forget that learning can be fun and fairy tales can teach you skills you need to do well in school as well as life. One of the most important parts of school is building relationships with peers, learning how to work with other people, and understanding that there are many perspectives through which to see the same thing. Sharing common reading in book groups helps foster these skills and relationships. What better way to work together and have fun than read multiple versions and perspectives of the same fairy tale stories.
