PM Gold: Rumpelstiltskin (PM Traditional Tales and Plays) Levels 21, 22 x 6 Pack

In England, ‘Rumpelstiltskin’ was called ‘Tom Tit Tot’; in Scotland, ‘Whuppity Scoorie’; in France ‘Ficdini Ricdon’. ‘Rumpelstiltskin’ was collected by the Brothers Grimm in the early 1800s, but the story is much older. It preserves the ancient superstition that supernatural power can be broken if a secret name is known – in many primitive societies identity, name and power are intertwined. Set in Northern Europe, circa 1300.

Gold level titles introduce children to more complex sentences with an average length of 10 words and help to develop reading strategies such as breaking long words down into syllables.

Available for Levels 15-24, PM Traditional Tales and Plays retell classic tales in a simplified language and form that children can understand. Teachers use the tales in guided reading sessions and children can later read them with confidence and understanding. Parts are colour-coded for easy recognition.
