Breaking News.....


Breaking News....We are reporting live from the wolf's castle.  We just heard that the wolf wants to let the world know that he is NOT the Big Bad Wolf like everyone says he is. He says everyone has the story wrong!  He just needed some sugar to bake a cake for his dear granny's birthday, so he asked the pigs if he could borrow some.   And that's where the trouble began.  He wants a chance to tell his side of the story!  

Our reporters, Lisa Mayer and Melissa Kneeland are on the scene now to bring us the latest.  
The first thing they notice is the sign on the castle says "Beware of Wolf",  but strangely it has hearts on it and the castle doesn't look frightening at all.  Could the wolf be nice after all?  Could we have been believing the wrong story all along?

Reporters: Melissa Kneeland and Lisa Mayer

Reporters: Logan and Cherish
Reporters: Ilisabeth and Brooklynn


As the news begins to spread, more reporters show up at the scene of the wolf's castle, ready to break the latest.
Reporters: Allysa and Lauren
The reporters are all anxious to get back to the office and write their stories of the recent development.  They are also beginning to wonder if other fairy tales are all wrong too.  They are talking about investigating them and maybe exposing the truth in their articles. 

Students picked out of a cauldron slips of paper
that represented elements of fairy tales such as
 good and evil characters, magic, and a problem.  Then they wrote their own version
of a new fairy tale.  For some writers,  the grandma was made to be evil
and the troll was good.  They had so much fun twisting these familiar tales.
