Aim:

Children will ponder the central meaning of well known fairy tales and understand them more by attempting to rewrite them.

Children will become more aware of changes in lifestyle over time by comparing elements of life described in fairytales and thinking how these things function in the Year 2000.

Method :

Children choose a well known fairy tale e.g. a story by Hans Christian Anderson or the Grimms brothers and see if they can rewrite it to happen in the year 2000.
