Great Job!. I like your choice of story and great job establishing prior knowledge/getting predictions. Your class management skills were great too :-)
I liked your lesson idea. Starting your prior-knowledge chart by focusing on families was great- everyone knows about that. I would maybe have written down some of the terminology you used that may be unknown, like "mistreated." Defining and posting new vocab can really help ELLs and all students.
I think you did well with the read aloud. I love how you set it up with revisiting a well known classic and then introduced a similiar story within a different culture. Another story is called The Rough Faced Girl it is a Native American Cinderella story.
I think you did a great job with simulating how your lesson would play out were students to be present. Your use of identifying prior knowledge (asking what the students already know about the story of Cinderella) and then making predictions as to what they think might happen in The Egyptian Cinderella story seems like it would work well in the classroom.
I think using the Cinderella story is a great way to make children aware of the multiple perspectives from different cultures and how stories between the cultures can have the same overarching themes, but the experiences of the characters will be different based on their cultural backgrounds. This is a really great idea for a lesson, I'm sure kids would enjoy it!
I like the use of prediction with a subject that some students will be familiar with but which has a twist in the book (Egyptian). The Egyptian Cinderella also brings in a cultural aspect: differences between Egypt and United States.
I liked this idea because it can help children relate to this fairy tale who are not blonde hair blue eyes. I have never heard of this version. Have you ever heard of the story about Cinderella in the city? I forget the name of it, but it was good too.
Really neat idea -- I liked it a lot. Cinderella is such a popular Childrens' tale that I think it's great you decided to use it for your lesson. Good job
Cinderella is a good book to use when doing a multicultural unit. There are many different versions to use. I actually don't think I have ever seen or read this one. Good Job!
I really liked the idea of using Cinderella. There are so many different Cinderella stories and I think that you could create a whole multicultural unit on the different Cinderella stories, comparing and contrasting them.
