Rapunzel (Fairytale)

This traditional fairytale written in a graphic novel form is great for integrating theatre into the classroom. Because the way graphic novels are written, similar to comics with shots from scene to scene, the students can perform their favorite parts of the story. I know there is also a Snow White graphic novel, which would be great to use as well for some variety. In 3rd grade students learn about types of fiction so this activity, would be great to introduce folk/fairytales, integrate technology with some flip cameras and incorporate theatre in the classroom.
