During the
childhood, I think that all the children have seen Disney´s movies. For this
reason, I consider that it´s an interesting topic to talk about Cinderella
story because there are different versions and I think that only one is focused
on children: The Perrault´s version.

First of
all, in class we taught about Cinderella´s story. It was fantastic because with
the help in group, we could remember the characters, the events and the end of
the story.
In my
opinion, this activity had an objective: To distinguish between the two stores,
the Grimm´s version and Perrault´s version. As teachers, I think that it is
necessary to look for one adapted version to share with our pupils.
During the
class, we read the two versions and in my opinion, the two stories change
notably. I think that there is a main difference between the stories, the years.
In Perrault
version, Cinderella was advised by her stepmother and she will help to
Cinderella during the book until Cinderella will be married with the prince. In
the other case, Grimm´s brothers said that Cinderella is advised by a bird.
By other
part, there is other big difference between the final of the stories. In
Perrault´s version, the sisters will have a punishment while in the other
story, Cinderella is comprehensive and she absolves their sister.
In summary,
both stories are different by the years and the age. I mean, I think that
Perrault´s version is more adapted for children and it´s written in other way by
the difference between the years.
Hello Daniel! had been reading your post and I liked so much. It is explained very well what we were doing in class.
ResponderEliminarIn my opinion is very interesant to search for the different versions of the stories, until recently I knew of some films that had other versions as Alice in wonderland which I have also made a post on my blog, and if you like these issues, I'm sure you'll like!
From my point of view, films are a great resource to use in class, as we have been seeing in this course with films like Cinderella and Mulan,
Films offer a wide range of possibilities to do with kids in class and the best of all is that children enjoy working with movies and often learn without realizing.
In my case my nephews always see the cartoons in English and almost all the disney films too, and this helps them to improve a lot in the learning of English and also the see the idiom in other way funny and not boring to learn.
I am sure that I will use them when I become a teacher!!
Hi Dani!!
ResponderEliminarCongratulations for your post, it is very well organised the information of what we did in the class.Also It is very interesting for me because during all my life I like so much disney films.
That day in class I enjoyed a lot discovering the other ways of Cinderella story.
In mi opionion the idea of having different versions of the films is great because you can do a plenty of activities like for example teachers can take different sections of these stories to for a new one, to see the differences between them or in the case of is a film of other country teachers can create an enviroment of the film to study different cultures too.
Moreover it is true that the are stories which are well adapted to children than others and with them is more easy to work with in classroom.
I hope you like my comment.
Regards.
