Our Six Sentence Fairytales

This term we have been writing six sentence fairytales. We have read lots of fairytales and retold them in our own words. During our writing we have enjoyed changing well known fairytales and giving them a different ending, changing the setting or giving the characters new special talents.

Six Sentence Fairytale Criteria:

1. Who is the main character? 
2. Where does your character live? 
3. What is your character's special talent? 
4. What problem does your character have? 
5. How does your character feel? 
6. How does your character solve the problem? 

Have a read of Samantha's fairytale.  

Once upon a time there was a princess called Rapunzel.
She lived in a big castle.
She was good at letting down her hair.
The big ugly dragon came to catch her.
Rapunzel was scared of the dragon.
................

The last sentence is missing can you write it for her?
