K-2 0 favorites 0 promising practices http://hca.gilead.org.il/ Last updated: Fri, 08/27/2021 - 11:47 share

How It Works

Here’s a collection of many of Andersen’s stories and fairy tales, many with the original artwork. Most of these stories are short, so they’re easily printed out for reading to your class. The site isn’t fancy, but the information is easily accessible.

In the Classroom

Use this site as an anticipatory set or "activator" to introduce a unit or lesson on a projector. The site has literally tons of Andersen’s stories, and could be used to introduce students to short story writing. Be sure help your weaker readers and ESL students by sharing the vocabulary words prior to reading, either on a handout or by projecting on an interactive whiteboard and highlighting them in the text as you come to them.
