You have successfully completed the task of evaluating a fairy tale.

You are now faced with the task of rewriting the fairy tale you just read, making it more "gender equitable." Don't forget...girls can be heroes too. And boys can sometimes need help.

Using the Fairy Tale Analysis poster that your group made, rewrite the fairy tale in which the various character traits, such as heroism and helplessness, are seen in both genders of the characters.

To help you plan your "updated" fairy tale, use the Story Elements Worksheet.
