How Fairy Tale Ends: Ideas for Language Writing Tasks

Hi All,

This was forwarded to me by my sister-in-law. It's just for fun, but I think it

(the idea) can be used as a writing/speaking activity. Some points to consider:

- Write a paragraph or brief essay (which could be posted on blogs/wikis/google

docs) about

  • fairy tales vs practical/cruel realities of life
  • childhood stories- when to start/end believing in them
  • describe the story behind the picture/s (easy task)
Anyway, perhaps you could think of other better ideas :-)
