Help Cinderella & Our Fairy Tale Ball, Please!

My Cinderella project needs 10 different versions of the story, including 2 audiobooks and 25 copies of 1 version.

Mrs. Brown Cherryville Elementary School
Cherryville, NC Grades PreK-2

I teach first grade in NC. I have students functioning on various levels this year (below grade level, on grade level and above grade level).

I would like to expose my students to different versions of Cinderella books. My grade level has planned a week to focus on Fairy Tales. The fairy tale my class will present is Cinderella (my favorite Fairy Tale from when I was a child!). I would also like to give each of my students their own copy of Cinderella at the end of our unit. However, I need your help. I do not have different versions to share with my class and I don't have 25 copies of the book to give to my students. This is where you can help! I want my students to learn that dreams really can come true! Don't you have dreams?

Since I do not have different versions of Cinderella to share with my students, I NEED YOUR HELP! If I could share 9 different versions of the story with my class, we could compare and contrast them and then share our own ideas to create our own version of the beloved book.

If you help to fund this proposal, you will make a difference in my students learning this year and the students in my future classroom! I know you can't wait to click the "FUND NOW" green button! Really I do appreciate you reading my proposal! Have a great day!
