Read the questions below and check the pages on the left to find the answers. 1. Which is the most frequent beginning of a fairy tale? 2. Who wrote Hansel and Gretel and The Little Mermaid? 3. What different parts do you recognize in the structure of a fairy tale? 4. Look for examples of phrases which introduce the problem in the story. 5. Can you give us an example of a traditional fairy tale end? 6. Two things fairy tales have in common. Now think of a story you would like to turn into a "fairy tale".
