Parody: A humorous version of a common story. An example of parody is Sherk.
Stereotype: Stereotypes are like saying that a princess has to be beautiful and kind and sweet, so that is how
we see princesses.
Also it can be when we say that the bad guys are the witches and giants and the big bad wolf.
Cinderella
Beauty and the Beast
Aladdin
Jack and the Beanstalk
Three billy goats gruff.
Why is it important to understand and identify stereotypes?
Because it is better to be yourself and not judge people because of what other people say they should be.
Are stereotypes always negative? Explain.
Yes because it’s saying how people should be, like they always say that princesses are kind and pretty and sweet.
But what is their not they won’t fit in at all.
Also the giants and witches and all the bad people in stories, now when you think of them you think that they’re
bad so that’s why I think there negative.

Work sheet two
In order to write a good analysis of the Fairy Tale you read, answer these questions first.
These questions will get you thinking critically about the tale and allow you to order your thoughts. In other words, this
worksheet is the planning sheet for an analysis of the Fairy Tale you read.
Once you have completed these questions, use the information you have written out to write your analysis. Make sure you
mention what Fairy Tale you are analyzing and don't forget your name. It would be a good idea to write a paragraph for each
question. This way, your analysis will be easy to read and will also be thorough.
1. Write a short summary of the story you read.
I read beauty and the beast. It was about a father who got lost in the woods and found a castle. Sleepy and cold he goes
into the castle and then he goes to sleep there and when he wakes up he finds himself alone. So he goes out side and sees
some rose remembering his promise to Beauty his daughter goes to pick one. A beast comes out of and says that he will die
our bring his daughter to the castle to live instead of him. The father agrees and goes home and gets his daughter. She
doesn’t mind it that much and they become friends not soon after, soon he asks her to marry him she says no. One day he
brings her a magic mirror to see her family through she sees that her father is sick and is asks if she can go home he
says yes but only for seven days. Her father gets better then she sees in one of her dreams that the beast is dieing so
she goes back he is sick so she realizes that she loves him and agrees to marry him he turns human. Turns out a witch
turned him into a beast and only someone agreeing to marry him and loving him when he looks like that will break the
spell.
2. Define stereotype in your own words.
It is the way you are supposed to think of things like princesses have to be pretty and kind. Also giants are mean what
if they are not. It’s like saying that is the way we are supposed to see people.
3. Identify and describe the stereotypes that are found in the Fairy Tale you read.
a. Female characters:
b. Male characters: He was the beast and because he was a beast he was thought of as mean and couldn’t be a good person
inside.
c. Others: The witch that turned him into a beast is thought of as mean but really she had a reason because she was
teaching him a lesson because he was mean and he thought everyone should like him because he was good looking.
4. Describe for the reader what the stereotypes you've mentioned above tell us about :
a) the role of women at the time the story was written
Beauty was the maiden who agreed to save her father and take his place, in the castle living with the beast who she falls
in love with and breaks the curse.
b) the family values at the time the story was written
There is lots of family values because Beauty takes her fathers place so he won’t die.
c) the rights of children at the time the story was written
They didn’t have much rights though they loved their daddy very much.
d) others

9. CINDERELLA AND THE
THREE LITTLE PIGS :)

10. Fractured fairytales
Paragraph one: Clean the drapes, vacuum the floor, clean the windows. Gees is there
anything I get out of here I mean I live with the three little pigs. Yes they are the
pigs from the story but they changed it a little bit, the wolf didn’t actually die he
go out of there and hasn’t been seen since. Oh by the way I’m Cinderella but everyone
calls me Cindy, for short. Truth be told the pigs aren’t that bad I mean they took me
in when no one else would, but they also aren’t little in size. “CINDY” Missy Piggy
yells “COME HERE”. Gees patience is not a virtue for her is it now. Slowly making my
way up the stairs covered in purple silk that had to be changed weekly. Opening the
big black doors I step inside to the rosy pink room with with a red bed planted in the
middle of the room. If you hadn’t noticed she has a thing for colour and when I say
colour I mean bright colour, it hurts to look being a more subtle person myself.
“Cindy dear you must swear to me that you will not go to the ball tonight” says Missy
Piggy.
“But you and the other men are going, why can’t I?” I answer dread seeping into my bones,
I had been waiting for this for a long time. To finally meet the prince.
“The wolf will be there, so you must not meet him ever!!!!”
“But I thought you said you hadn’t seen him since that terrible night that he got away.”
“Yes that is true but we have spies and they tell us that he is going to be there tonight
and we plan to finish this tonight, we can’t live in fear anymore.”
“I can’t let you go alone, can I help?”
“No,no,no,no it’s to dangerous you must stay here we will come back.”

11. Fractured fairytale continued
Paragraph two:
So I am forbidden to go to the ball tonight well that is depressing I hate it when people
or pigs destroy, my schedule like that. After Missy Piggy told me I fled to my room crying
and that’s when the fairy appeared. I know what your thinking a fairy right you have to be
kidding me, but no I’m not it’s all true. Apparently fairies aren’t all sweat and kind and
pretty, well not this one anyone. I for one like that stereotype better but my fairy
godmother is snappy old not in the kind grandmotherly way, it’s the kind that you pretend
to like for your mothers sake. “You have three wishes choose carefully it can’t take it
back.” She says in a raspy voice that sounded like she had been smoking half her life.
“Hurry up I don’t have all day.” She says sounding really bored.
My three wishes were:
1. For the pigs to be safe from the wolf.
2. To make it to the ball in time and to most dance all night.
3. To have the most beautiful dress, shoes, hair and makeup at the ball.
I thought I choose really well if I may say so myself.

12. Fractured fairytale continued
Paragraph three:
By the time the Piggy's were long gone the carriage arrived and I was wearing the most beautiful
dress in the world, and looking prettier then ever before. My dress was made out the finest silk
it was snow white with lots of folds without looking like a meringue, just brushing the floor.
Peeking out from underneath it, was the most beautiful glass slippers, like a hundred tear drop
put together as two high healed shoes with tiny heart shaped diamonds placed around the rim. My
golden hair hang in ringlets down my back. Not trying to sound vain but I looked beautiful.
Hoping into the horse drown carriage , I settle into the comfy flush chairs. The ride was over
very quickly and when I stepped into the ball room all eyes were on me even the princes. He came
forward and asked me to dance I was so happy that I almost started jumping. We danced most of the
night and I didn’t even notice when the piggy's came in and saw me, at first I don’t think they
new who I was. Sadly they figured it out and came storming towards me, anger in there eyes was so
harsh I cringed away from them. Oddly enough the prince push me behind him shielding me from
them. “CINDY!!! COME HERE RIGHT NOW!!!!” Screams Missy Piggy practically frothing at the mouth. I
didn’t know how scary she could be, well now I know and trust me when I say this you should be
glad you weren’t here. Through I think that when the prince shielded me made them you even redder
if at all possible. When I didn’t move Biggy Piggy her brother hissed “Cindy get away from the
wolf you are standing right next to him.” That was odd the only person standing next to me was
the prince and he did not look like a wolf. “No he’s the prince not the wolf that tried to kill
you, are you certain those glasses work.” I jock letting a nervous laugh out, but stopping when I
saw their faces. Burt the princes face was a look of confusion, Missy Piggy was anger, Biggy
Piggy was examining his glasses and Figgy Piggy was looking scared.

13. Fractured fairytale continued
Paragraph four:
The prince opened his mouth and said “You know those traitors?” He spat out like something
tasted bad. “Yea they adopted me, you know them?”
“Yes, so it’s true that they went and told everyone that I’m a wolf and tried to kill
them.” He answers bitterly steep more in front of me so I had to look over his shoulder to
see what was going on. “When what really happened was that I was sent to collect your
unpaid fines on your three house and if I couldn't then to knock them down, so they made
up that entire story. Because they didn’t want people to know they spent it all on a five
coarse meal in New York and brought a jet to get there and back.
“ So they made it into a huge thing got lots of money and a daughter, e things and hid in
plan sight.” By now the pigs were looking sick, not liking that what they heard. “Men take
them to the prisons!” He says with a flick of his wrist. “Cinds you have to believe us we
thought we were doing the right thing.” Pleads Missy Piggy eyes going wide. “If you hadn't
spent all you money on a five coarse meal in New York and brought a jet to go there and
back just to pig out, then maybe you wouldn’t be there.”
“Cinds just be happy OK and remember that we love you very much.”
“I’ll see you soon” I answer somberly before they are dragged of to the dungeons.
A couple of hours later Burt came over to see me “hey Cindy are you ok?”
“Yes it’ll be ok later.”
“I wanted to ask you something but it’s ok if you want to wait and think about it. Well I
was wondering if you would be my queen and marry me?”
“Yes I guess I can do that be your queen and marry you.” I say now we have both smiling.
