From "once upon a time" to "happily ever after," fairy tales continue to engage readers and listeners. Third grade works with fairy tales around this time in the academic year, which is all the excuse I need to feature them.
Below are a variety of books involving fairy tales and folktales. Some are traditional versions, some create a bigger narrative based on classic tales, and others retell fairy tales in new ways. Clicking on an image takes you to that book's digital catalog record at the County of Los Angeles public library, from which you can check out that ebook instantly (unless it's already checked out, in which case you can place a hold on the item). If you don't have a library card, you can get a digital library card instantly and start checking out ebooks as well as audiobooks right away.
There is an exception to our overall fairy tale theme, which is a Shakespeare choice for grade 5. Shakespeare's actual birthday is not known for certain, but he was baptized on April 26, 1564, so scholars believe he must have been born in late April. Please head over to Weekly Readalouds for this week's videos, and as always, students really can watch any of them--it's not necessary to stick to a given grade-level choice.
