A Compare and Contrast Literacy Unit by Cutesy Clickables
Goldilocks and the Three Bears by James Marshall
vs.
The Three Snow Bears by Jan Brett
This packet was made using Goldilocks and the Three Bears by James Marshall.
The
inferencing page and the cause and effect page goes with that particular story, but the other pages of the packet could be used for any Goldilocks story.
If you want to stick
with the same author, Jan Brett also has a version of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. This unit is meant to compare and contrast the 2 different versions of Goldilocks.
I
wanted to pair it with the winter version of Goldilocks, The Three Snow Bears by Jan Brett.
We hope you enjoy this unit as much as we do! * Amanda and Stacia *
