Fairy Tales Project



Brilliant Fairy Tales
All of our second grade students wrote original fairy tales as a culmination to their fairy tale genre study.   Fourth grade mentors helped the younger students add lights to their fairy tale illustrations using copper tape, button batteries and tiny LED stickers.  The stickers lit up when circuits were added to back of the pictures. 



On December 17th, all second grade students had a chance to tour the five 2nd grade classrooms to read and view the illuminated stories of their peers. 

The materials for the ‘Brilliant Fairy Tales’ were funded by a K-12 Education Partnership grant from the Dominion Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Dominion Resources.  Susan A. King, the Dominion Foundation External Affairs Representative for the Piedmont Region came to view and celebrate the projects with students.
