- Use pictures and have students sort into Fantasy and Reality (True)

Fairy Tales
Fairy tales are great for illustrating the difference between fantasy and reality.
Nothing is more fantasy-oriented than fairy tales. Traditional fairy tales are filled with magic and made-up creatures. Read a few fairy tales such as Cinderella or Rumpelstiltskin, discussing the elements of the story (beginning, middle, end, etc.) and what makes it a fairy tale (magic, mythical creatures, fictional places/kingdoms, etc.). Next have the students write and illustrate a story about what they did the day before. When both stories are finished, discuss how the story elements all differ.
Television Kids
First graders love to watch different television shows and often believe that the characters are real and not actors. A unit on television will help the students understand that the characters are just people helping to tell a story. Have the students choose their favorite live-action television character and look that actor up on the Internet. Students should do a short report on the actor's name, birthday, and any other shows or movies the actor has appeared in. This is also a good way to introduce giving oral reports or doing written reports.
