Good morning scholars.

Um,

today we're gonna get started by reading a read

aloud story and after listening to the story,

you have this form that talks about the story elements in your folder.

You are going to fill this paper out and be ready to turn it in on monday.

One side has the empty boxes where you can draw

the pictures in and the other side has the writing lines

where you are going to write them in

second grade friends,

please begin by filling this side out and then if you want to try this side,

first grade friends

Challenge yourself. See if you can complete this side in complete sentences.

Remember a sentence needs to start with a

capital letter.

You need

finger spaces between your words and it needs to have

in punctuation. Nice job.

We've been talking about fairy tales in class and today I am going to read the story.

The bremen town musicians think about what we know about fairy tales.

They usually have something magical in them.

Maybe some talking characters

happily ever after.

See if you can find or hear

some of the things that we talked about with fairy tales in this story.

Here we go.

There was once a donkey who carried sacks to and from the mill for years.

But now the donkey was too old to work.

I'm sorry, said the miller,

but your donkey didn't stay to hear the rest but ran off as fast as he could.

He thought that if he could get to the town of bremen, he'd become a musician.

A little way along he came upon a hunting dog lying in the road, panting, panting,

means that he was going,

ah,

why are you lying in the work and the road?

Great grab hold as donkey, because I'm old and I can no longer hunt with my master.

He was going to kill me, so I ran off.

I don't know what I shall do.

Well, said the donkey, I'm going to bremen to become a musician.

Why not come to?

I'll play the fiddle.

You can beat the drums.

So there's the donkey

and there's the old dog.

The dog jumped right up and off they went together.

Soon they came to a cat sitting by the side of the road, her face looked.

Three days of bad weather. What's bothering you, mistress, mustache liquor?

Asked the donkey. Oh, answered the cat. I'm getting on in years.

I'd rather sit by the fire than chasing any mice. So mistress wanted to drown me,

but I figured it out before she got her sack and took off. Now, where can I go,

come with us to bremen, Donkey said. We're starting a band

after all. You sing in the night. What a great idea, purred the cat!

So the three went on along the road until they came to a farm yard.

There was a rooster sitting on the gate, crying with all his might,

wow! That hurts the ear said Dog. Pierces the heart, said Cat. What's the matter?

Ask Donkey.

I've served this house for five years, calling up the sun.

And now they want to serve me for sunday dinner,

said rooster. All because I've gotten old.

Hey, now redhead said donkey,

come away with us to bremen.

We're starting a band.

You have a good voice,

Well,

a loud voice. Anyway,

I played the fiddle and dogged the drums.

Cat will sing at night.

You can sing during the day.

So off they went towards bremen,

but bremen was a long way steel.

And they were just passing through a forest when the sun went down.

So they tucked in for the night Donkey and dog laid down under a big tree.

Cat climbed to the first branch where she stretched out and rooster flew

right to the top of the tree where he would be for the rest

for the first to see the sunrise.

He looked around in all four directions and thought

he saw a little light in the distance.

Hey! Down below, rooster called to his new friends. There's a light ahead.

That means a house.

It'll be better to step sleep in comfort than out in the cold forest. They all agreed.

So off they went until they came to the house, Donkey looked in the window,

he saw a big table set with good things to eat and drink

and several men sitting around and counting out gold and silver goblets,

bags of coins and money boxes that they took out of sacks.

What do you see? Gray horse? Asked Rooster.

I see a table set with good things to eat, and drink,

and roberts sitting there enjoying themselves.

Food, said Dog drinks, said Cat roberts, said the rooster.

They all came to the window to see for themselves.

Dog on donkeys, back, Cat on dogs, back and rooster on Cat's head.

How can we get rid of them?

They whispered to one another with our brave music, Donkey said.

So donkey brayed, dog barked, cats screeched, rooster crowed.

Then they scratched through the window into the room.

The robbers thought the police had come.

They jumped up at the terrible music and fled into the woods.

The four hungry musicians seated themselves at the table and

ate and ate and ate until there was nothing left.

Then they put out the light

look for somewhere to sleep.

Donkey laid down outside the Hey Dog settled back by the back door.

Cat found the hurt with his warm ashes, and rooster flew up to the roof beam

tired from their long journey.

They were soon asleep.

When midnight came the robber saw that the light was no longer burning in the house.

Everything seemed.

Why?

So the captain said, shame on us. We were chased off too easily Henry.

You must go back and see what's going on.

So off they went

He opened up the front door carefully. Everything was quiet.

He went to stick a candle into the fire,

but instead he mistook the cats glowing fiery eye for a

live coal because cats can sleep with their eyes open,

you know,

Cat didn't think it was funny at all and jumped into Henry's face,

spitting and scratching.

Henry was horribly frightened and ran toward the back door,

but dog jumped up and bit him on the leg when

Henry tried to escape across the yard past the hip hop

donkey gave him a nasty kick in the hind foot,

awakened by the noise, Rooster cried loudly, cock a doodle doo.

Henry ran back to the robbers and said,

oh there's an awful witch sitting by the fire who scratched my

face with her long fingernails and a man with a knife standing

by the back door who stabbed me in the leg and a

monster lying in the yard who struck me with an iron club.

All the while. A judge called from on high. I want a piece of him too.

I barely made it out alive.

The animals were sitting and eating all the food,

terrified.

The robbers ran all the way past bremen and took the first boat to America.

As for the four musicians,

they like the house so well, they never left again

for all. I know

they're still

there.

Music can make robbers cry

sing aloud

and watch them fly.

There are all the animals,

the four musicians stacked up and they're the robbers aren't running off,

so friends in that story.

They never made it to be musicians.

They scared the robbers off. The robbers thought it was a witch.

Now you're going to fill out your form

characters.

Think of the characters that we saw

the setting.

When and where did it happen?

What was the problem?

And how was the problem solved?

Remember pictures on this side

sentences on this side.

Can't wait to see all of your amazing work.
