Big Bad Wolf Compare & Contrast


As we continue working with compare and contrast this week in the classroom... this is a fun activity to compare/contrast the Big Bad Wolf character in the fairy tales, "Little Red Riding Hood" and "The Three Little Pigs". The mini-anchor chart will help your students remember what compare and contrast mean. You can also use the Wanted Poster for any fairy tale villain you are reading about with your class. 

In addition to comparing and contrasting, I have also included some other activities for story sequencing, retelling, and more.

Included in this activity...
~ Wanted Poster for your fairy tale villain
~ Example of how to create a wanted poster for the Big Bad Wolf (Three Little Pigs)
~ Example of how to create a wanted poster for the Big Bad Wolf (Little Red Riding Hood)
~ Big Bad Wolf compare/contrast Venn Diagram activity
~ Compare/Contrast mini-anchor chart
~ Story retelling for The Three Little Pigs
~ Story retelling for Little Red Riding Hood
~ Author's Corner writing activity for The Three Little Pigs
~ Author's Corner writing activity for Little Red Riding Hood
~ Story sequencing for The Three Little Pigs
~ Story sequencing for Little Red Riding Hood
~ Big Bad Wolf ABC order activity

The Venn Diagram activity, story retelling, and story sequencing are a great way to assess your student's comprehension and understanding of the characters, events, and main ideas of these fairy tales.

Beginning, Middle & End

We have been working hard on retelling the beginning, middle and end of a story. Last week we read, "Stellaluna" by Janell Cannon, and created a story map to outline the beginning, middle and end of the story. The students did an amazing job retelling the story. :)

Here is the mini-anchor chart and writing activity we used in the classroom for our beginning, middle and end retelling story map...
