Literary reading. Grades 1-2: lesson plans according to the “School of Russia” program. Publishing house "Teacher", 2011. Contents - N.V. Lobodina, S.V. Savinova and others.
The childhood of each of us is continuously connected with good fairy tales. They formed our picture of the world, from them we first learned about good and evil, about loyalty and deceit, about friendship and betrayal.
Having come to us from time immemorial, fairy tales have been passed down from generation to generation. Most fairy-tale heroes came to us practically unchanged, some have undergone literary adaptation over the years.
Traditionally, fairy tales are divided into:
- Magical.
- Tales about animals.
- Household.
Although there is no clear boundary between them. In magical stories, the main characters are often animals; social and everyday characters contain elements of magic. Each story has its own hidden meaning that needs to be seen, then reading a fairy tale will be an interesting and useful activity.
What do the fairy tales “Warm Bread”, “Cinderella”, “The Tale of Tsar Saltan” teach?
Fairy tales teach us love, kindness and mutual assistance; concepts form the moral world of a person. In the fairy tale “Warm Bread,” a boy, having offended a horse, regrets his action and tries to make amends by feeding the wounded animal.
History teaches us to be kinder to others; you cannot just offend others, because at any moment their help can become invaluable.
Many fairy tales teach hard work and diligence. In Cinderella, the main character worked hard and was richly rewarded by fate, which is represented by the fairy godmother.
Some instructive stories teach trust, to trust yourself and your loved ones. In "The Tale of Tsar Saltan", the tsar believed gossip and slander about his beloved and almost ruined his destiny.
Other tales
| Fairy tale | What does she teach |
| A little prince | The Little Prince is a sweet and touching story about friendship and mutual assistance. She reveals the world through the eyes of a child; every adult always remains a child at heart. History teaches that happiness is a state of mind; it does not depend on external circumstances. A person is the architect of his own happiness; people do not always notice that its meaning lies in small things - growing flowers or in the sunrise. The main thing in life is loyalty and honesty; it is extremely important to be responsible for those around us. |
| The Scarlet Flower | History teaches us to value the relationship between parents and children. The fairy tale shows how much a father loves his daughter and is ready to do anything for her. The daughter answers him in kind; for the sake of her father, she goes to the monster, whom she then fell in love with. A common thread is the idea that you cannot judge someone by their appearance, and behind a not very beautiful mask there may be a subtle and kind soul hiding. |
| The wise minnow | The hero of the fairy tale, the wise minnow, was considered wise, but his imaginary wisdom was that he was simply hiding from the outside world. He lived for a very long time, his life ended up being dull and unnoticed by anyone. History teaches that you cannot live solely for yourself, you need to bring some benefit to society and your loved ones. |
| 12 months | 12 months is a bright story about goodness. It is about the fact that any miracles are possible for a kind and sincere person, even snowdrops in winter. The main character won the respect of twelve months with her kindness and hard work. |
| Pantry of the sun | “Pantry of the Sun” teaches to appreciate and love nature and animals, which are much more loyal than people. The story is that in any common endeavor you need discipline and mutual respect. If you take on one thing together, then you need to go together to the end, without finding out who is older and who is more important. |
| The Snow Queen | “The Snow Queen” is about how love and kindness can melt even the coldest heart. She teaches to overcome all obstacles for the sake of feelings; no witchcraft can resist the power of love. |
| Puss in Boots | “Puss in Boots” will teach you how important it is to help each other in the most difficult situations. In a difficult moment, the one from whom you least expect can help out; in the fairy tale, the cat helped the main character. The rich inheritance received by the hero's older brothers did not make them happier. The younger brother inherited a true friend, who repaid him well for his kindness. |
| ugly duck | In our lives, many people judge others by their appearance or financial status. They gather in groups and bully those who are not like them. This is the story of the ugly duckling, set in the animal kingdom. Appearances are deceiving, and behind an unremarkable shell there can be a wonderful person hidden. History also teaches that one should not lose heart, one must hope for the best; in the end, a beautiful swan grew out of an ugly duckling. |
| The Bremen Town Musicians | History teaches that you should not abandon friends and loved ones in a difficult situation. In difficult situations, you need to unite, as the animals did in the tale of the Bremen Town Musicians. At one time, the owners kicked them out as unnecessary, but together they were able to free the hut from the robber. If it seems that no one needs you, you can find your people and become a strong team. |
| Princess Frog | “The Frog Princess” is a treasure trove of folk wisdom. She teaches you to trust your loved ones. If Ivan had immediately trusted the princess, he would not have had to go to Koshchei. History teaches that behind an unprepossessing appearance a real magician can be hidden, you just have to look for it. She teaches to help others, then they will help out in a difficult situation. |
| Little Red Riding Hood | “Little Red Riding Hood” teaches you to obey your elders, especially your parents. You can't go far from home without an adult and talk to strangers, otherwise you can get into trouble. |
| Thumbelina | The fairy tale teaches its readers to be responsive and kind. If a person is different from others, he can always find others like him. Happiness is given only to kind people who help others, like Thumbelina who looked after the swallow. |
A fairy tale is an accessible way to develop a child and form his moral values. It is important to read fairy tales to children, and then discuss with them what the fairy tale taught them, what conclusions they drew for themselves.
When choosing a fairy tale to read, it is important to take into account his age and psycho-emotional characteristics; it will have a positive effect on the child’s emotional state and helps correct his behavior.

Review of the fairy tale "Cinderella"
I really like the fairy tale “Cinderella”, because it has a completely happy ending. Of course, the behavior of the stepmother and her daughters deserves reproach, but Cinderella forgave them and that’s just wonderful. Cinderella was very beautiful and at the same time very kind, and therefore she deserved her happiness with the prince.

- Magic assistant, fairy-tale creature - fairy and magic wand.
Beauty until the evening, but kindness forever.
Whatever is done is for the better.
Summary, brief retelling of the fairy tale "Cinderella"
Until the age of 16, Cinderella lived happily with her parents, but then the girl’s mother died.
Two years later, Cinderella’s father married someone else and her stepmother began to force Cinderella to do all the housework, so the girl was always dirty and covered in ashes.
Cinderella's sisters were as evil as her stepmother and picked on Cinderella because of her beauty.
One day the prince announced that he was giving a ball for several days and the stepmother and her sisters were going to go to the ball. The stepmother hoped to marry one of her daughters to a prince and the other to a minister.
She gave Cinderella the task of separating poppy seeds from millet and left with her daughters.
Cinderella burst into tears, but then a beautiful fairy appeared and instantly separated the poppy from the millet.
Then she told Cinderella to bring a pumpkin and made a carriage out of it. Six mice from the mousetrap became horses, and a rat became a coachman. The fairy turned six lizards into footmen, and Cinderella’s dress into a beautiful outfit of gold and silver brocade. The fairy also gave Cinderella beautiful shoes and warned that at midnight her magic would lose its power.
Cinderella went to the ball and everyone was amazed by the beauty of the unknown princess. The prince himself constantly danced with Cinderella and treated her to fruit.
And Cinderella shared the oranges with her sisters and spoke politely to them.
Cinderella left the palace at five minutes to twelve.
When the stepmother and sisters returned they talked a lot about the princess and were angry that all the housework had been done.
The next day, the stepmother and sisters left for the ball again, and Cinderella went after her, because the fairy again helped her - she separated the bag of peas from the bag of beans.
This time Cinderella forgot about the time, and when the clock began to strike midnight, she hurriedly ran away, losing her shoe along the way.
The stepmother and sisters believed that the prince was in love with an unknown princess.
And indeed the prince ordered all the girls in the country to try on the shoe.
Cinderella’s sisters also tried it on, but the shoe didn’t fit anyone.
Then the prince was about to leave, but his father remembered Cinderella and the prince gave her a shoe to try on. The shoe came at the right time, and Cinderella took out the second one.
The prince recognized his princess, and the fairy again turned Cinderella’s dress into an elegant one.
Cinderella married the prince and married her sisters to nobles.

Do we need Charles Perrault's fairy tales today?
In our fast-paced and fast-paced age, we increasingly forget about books, and are more and more addicted to TV and computers. But in any computer game cruelty and evil reign. Either they shoot at you, or you. And good does not always win the game. There comes a time when TV and computer get boring. And then you pick up the book by C. Perrault. Any fairy tale: “Cinderella”, “Sleeping Beauty”, “Puss in Boots”. Good, naive, old fairy tales. They teach people to be kinder, more merciful, more humane. And a person, having read the fairy tale by C. Perrault, will not go out into the street to misbehave.
So do we need the fairy tales of Charles Perrault today? It seems to me that today we really need them. Needed more than ever!

Letter for you!
I'm waiting for my people, but they're still not there. I sit and look out the window. And there they are circling around the square, cars scurrying back and forth. And suddenly a call. I go to the door and ask: “Who’s there?” And in response: “There is a letter for you, monsieur.” As if this French word applies to me. But I know only one Frenchman - Charles Perrault, a storyteller who once lived in France a long time ago. What do I have to do with this? And suddenly a loud “meow!” comes from behind the door. I look through the peephole and see: standing in front of the door is a cat with large whiskers, and huge boots on his hind legs. With his front paws he holds an envelope covered in white lilies on a blue background. I froze in surprise. And the cat again reaches out to the bell with its velvet paw and presses the bell button. I woke up and saw my mother standing in the room. “Did you fall asleep?” - she asked me. But I can’t understand anything and say: “Where is the cat in big boots?” And then suddenly I realize that, with the exception of my mother, I dreamed everything. “If you read “Cinderella” at night, who will you expect to visit: the sorceress, the prince or Cinderella herself? And after “Little Red Riding Hood” - the wolf? - asks mom. I see that she is not angry, I help her unpack the bags, but I still glance at the door. This cat in boots was too real and smart. What a pity that I didn’t have time to take the letter from him!

Letter from a fairy tale
Hello! My name is Thumb Boy. I live in a fairy tale. My father's name is Charles Perrault, I have many friends: Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, Puss in Boots. They are all very kind and smart.
Little Red Riding Hood is my best friend. She loves her grandmother so much that she is not afraid to walk through the scary, dark forest to visit her. True, I scold her all the time for being too gullible and imprudent, but she is so sincere and cheerful that it is simply impossible to be angry with her. But it happens in life that evil always gives way to good. Cinderella... I've been friends with her since childhood. She is so smart, so hardworking, patient and sincere. After all, she never contradicted her evil stepmother and her daughters, although it was hard and very sad for her. And, of course, she is rewarded for all this! Her godmother, a fairy, gave her a very beautiful outfit, and it is surprising that Cinderella was so grateful to her, although she knew that all this was only until midnight. How she wanted to be at least a little happy, and how great it was that she knew how to enjoy fleeting happiness. Is it possible that this girl could not be happy! Of course, she found her prince because she really wanted it and really believed in it.
But it’s worth learning resourcefulness and ingenuity from Puss in Boots. How cleverly he had deceived the king and the cannibal himself!
Yes, deciding to visit a scary castle is a brave act. And the main thing is that he did all this for the sake of his friend. All these heroes are my father's fantasy. He so wanted people to learn to look at the world through the eyes of children. It seems to me that each of you wants to be better, regardless of what century he lives in - in the distant eighteenth or in the progressive twenty-first. Am I right?
Artem Kislov, 7 “A” class, school No. 516
I love you all!
Everyone needs fairy tales, both children and adults. Fairy tales teach different wisdom and teach us to live. Books help people escape from the bustle of the city and from electronic devices. Without fairy tales, our life would be boring. Everyone, having read half of the fairy tale, thinks about the continuation and denouement! Adults read children's books and feel like children. Adults have both pleasant memories of childhood and not so much, but we all have a past, present and future. Each of us has already loved, loves and, of course, will love. We live for feelings! We would not be able to live without feelings, we also grieved, we grieve, we will grieve, but the most pleasant feelings on Earth are bright, high and kind. Everyone must understand that we did not just come to this planet, but we have a specific mission, task.
Love, cry, breathe, be bored, be happy, loved, bring kindness, affection. The main thing is for us all to feel it in this life, to hear the noise of trees, leaves, to see all the beauty of life, nature, the gold of every dandelion, because it was all created for us! Love it! Know how to feel it, don’t be so heartless, confess your good feelings to everyone. I love you all! I love!!! And I wish you all to experience the same wonderful feelings! I wish you love, health, good spirits and most of all: never be alone! If you treat others the way you would like to be treated, you will never be alone!!!

What can the world of fairy tales teach us? If we limit ourselves to the answer about the victory of good over evil, then this is far from fully capable of characterizing the fairy-tale genre. Fairy tales are the most important heritage of national cultures; with their help, we can not only cultivate high ideals in ourselves, but also become familiar with the treasures of world folk art.
A fairy tale is one of the most interesting phenomena of folk culture. Among all the works of oral folk art, the fairy tale occupies a special place. Works of this genre are capable of truly enchanting us; they captivate both children and adults, who, after many years, return to their favorite fairy tales of their childhood, remember familiar characters and go with them on an exciting journey.
The fairy tale genre in many of its manifestations turns out to be too schematic. The main motif that is found in the vast majority of fairy tales is the struggle between good and evil with the implied obligatory victory of good. It is hardly possible to find such fairy-tale situations in which this confrontation will be rethought in any significant way, where evil will be depicted as positive and good as helpless. It is also difficult to imagine a situation where a fairy-tale conflict would occur not between good and evil, but on some completely different plane, for example, between different characters of people who can hardly be called good or bad.
This conventionality of characters, sketchiness, the obligatory triumph of the ideas of good, which often diverges from our everyday life, is often blamed on fairy tales, speaking of the primitiveness of the fairy tale genre. But we should not forget that fairy tales do not at all pretend to have a deep study of characters or to pose complex topical questions and find their solutions. The fairy tale is remarkable for its conventions, its exaggerations, its fantastic nature. Having lost its simplicity, the fairy tale will lose itself.
What then can a fairy tale teach us? When answering this question, we must remember that a fairy tale is the most important part of folk tradition. Reading fairy tales, we not only empathize with the brave Ivan Tsarevich, we don’t just follow all the adventures of the Gray Wolf or Baba Yaga, we find reflections of these heroes in our character, in our inner world. A fairy tale helps us get in touch with our national culture and learn more about the culture of other countries. Fairy tales always glorify hard work, loyalty to goodness and readiness to accomplish great deeds.
Special mention should be made of author's fairy tales; this genre was most widely developed in the works of famous Western European writers such as Charles Perrault, Wilhelm Hauff, H. H. Andersen, A. de Saint-Exupéry, O. Wilde. The tales of these writers often go beyond fairy-tale conventions; they reveal holistic images and present complex characters. Many of these tales are filled with allusions and have a parable character, appealing to readers of all ages, in many ways even more to adults than to children.
Even more essays on the topic: “What do fairy tales teach?”
I really like reading fairy tales. They tell about interesting events and adventures, fantastic creatures act, animals acquire human traits, and magical objects are used. To get into a fairy-tale world, you need to have a rich imagination. Therefore, fairy tales develop our imagination. Without it, you cannot imagine either the magical firebird, or the many-headed Snake-Gorinich, or Baba Yaga, who flies in a mortar. In a fairy tale, there is always a struggle between good and evil. Good fairy-tale heroes always emerge victorious, no matter what obstacles they have to overcome. Gerda from the Danish writer G. K. Andersen's fairy tale “The Snow Queen” traveled a huge distance, despite danger, in search of her named brother Kai. It would seem, what can one little girl do?
But Gerda's good heart attracts other good people and animals. She is helped by a forest raven and a tame crow, and a prince and princess, and a reindeer, and a Laplander and a Finnish woman. Even the little robber will grow kinder next to Gerda. This Andersen heroine teaches us kindness and devotion, proves to us that love and courage are stronger than evil spells. The warm heart of the little girl turned out to be more valuable than the riches of the soulless Snow Queen and power over the whole world.
In fairy tales about animals, people are depicted as animals. Through the images of animals, the fairy tale teaches what not to do to your neighbors. In a Russian folk tale, a sly fox chased a hare out of his hut when her ice hut melted. But the brave cockerel evicted the redhead from the bunny hut and she was left with nothing. That’s what the fox needs, so that she doesn’t covet other people’s goods!
The fairy tale teaches us that sooner or later justice will prevail over injustice. The poor stepdaughter from the German folk tale “Mistress Blizzard” had to endure the bullying of her stepmother for a long time. And yet the end came for them. The fair Lady Metelitsa rewarded both sisters as they deserved. She enriched her good and hard-working stepdaughter, and doused her envious and lazy daughter with tar.
Although fairy tales tell about unusual events, every fiction contains something from real life. Vivid fairy-tale images help us better discern good and evil, truth and injustice in our everyday life. They teach us to be good, sincere, hard-working, and warn us against stinginess and deceit.

Once at school I was given an assignment to draw a hero from my favorite fairy tale. And the sun was shining outside. I really wanted to play football with the guys. According to the opinion, the magic words were sleeping: “At the behest of the pike, at my will,” which was taught to the fairy-tale hero Emelya by a pike caught in an ice hole, in gratitude for the returned freedom.
Then Emelya immediately said these words on the river - and the buckets of water themselves climbed up the mountain, came to the house and stood on the bench. Ax in Emelya began to chop wood herself. However, I am not Emelya and I do not live in a fairy tale. I had to draw it myself. And I drew a happy Emelya. Why him? Because he doesn’t wish harm on anyone, and the people around him are cunning, cunning, but they are unlucky, and Emelya becomes happy. It was with him, and not with someone else, that the Tsar’s daughter fell in love, and he became rich and noble.
I like this fairy tale, like others, because their heroes always emerge victorious, and evil is punished. Despite the bullying of her stepmother and her evil daughters, Khivrunka becomes happy. The old man's daughter from the fairy tale "Morozko" escapes death and returns home with gifts. Morozko spared her for her courage and patience.
Stories of the wolf and the fox, the wolf goat, birds, animals with whom amazing adventures happen, often happen to people. A perky bun rolls along the road and sings: she accompanied him everywhere. I left my grandparents and didn’t eat it. The bun ran away from the wolf, from the bear. And he became so arrogant that he was not afraid to sit on the fox’s tongue. The fox ate it. Don’t such stories happen to arrogant people who lose their sense of proportion and therefore suffer defeats in life?
I love fairy tales because there is truth in fiction. Fairy tales are permeated with kindness, they warn against bad deeds, teach to love friends and not leave a person or four-legged creature in trouble. The stories told in fairy tales are remembered for a lifetime.

The fairy tale is a lie, but there is a hint in it, a lesson for good fellows!
Almost all children (and some adults) love fairy tales. It is known that fairy tales perform not only an entertaining role, but also an educational one. They teach you to be kind, smart, strong, true to your word, teach you not to be afraid of difficulties, to believe in yourself and your friends. Fairy tales teach us to value friendship and help those who need help. Also, fairy tales explain to us how important it is to be hardworking, courageous and persistent and not to give up what you started, but to complete everything. In addition, every fairy tale contains a hidden moral that you cannot cheat, you cannot be greedy, you cannot betray your friends.
Fairy tales help you understand that you shouldn’t judge people by their appearance. After all, very often Ivan the Fool turns out to be Ivan the Tsarevich, and the Frog Princess turns out to be the Beautiful Princess. Fairy tales also teach us love for our parents. A hero who carries out an order from his father or mother is always revered more than his careless brothers and sisters. And it is he who inherits “half a kingdom in addition.” In addition, fairy tales teach us patriotism. The Main Character always readily comes out to defend his native land from monster invaders.
Fairy tales show us that the world is divided into good and bad, but there are always more good ones. And, most importantly, the fairy tale teaches that good always returns to those who help others, and good always defeats evil.

Many of us still love to immerse ourselves in the magical world of fairy tales. But children especially love them. But fairy tales not only entertain, but also teach. Let's figure it out: what do fairy tales teach? Fairy tales are a small model of the universe. The easiest way for children to get acquainted with the world around them is through the plot of fairy tales. But is the fairy tale as simple as it seems to us? Talking animals and birds, fictional countries, good and evil heroes and miracles - a child believes in all this, which means he believes in a fairy tale.
What useful things do fairy tales teach?
Fairy tales teach us to divide the world into good and bad people. But since there are more good people, luck is on their side.
The fairy tale creates a positive image - kind, smart, true to his word, strong.
Fairy tales teach us not to be afraid of difficulties. The main characters are not afraid of work, no matter how hard it is.
The fairy tale teaches: don’t have a hundred rubles, but have a hundred friends. And the surest way not to be left without a friend is to help him at the right time. The main characters of fairy tales always have many friends - birds, animals, plants, etc.
The fairy tale teaches not to judge a person by appearance. The Frog Princess - Tsarevna, Ivan the Fool - Ivan Tsarevich.
The fairy tale teaches that not everything always works out the first time. Courage and perseverance are rewarded with victory.
The fairy tale teaches you to love your parents - the one who carries out the instructions of his parents in fairy tales is always revered by his parents.
A fairy tale always contains a hidden moral: do not deceive, do not be greedy and do not betray.
The main thing that a fairy tale teaches is that good always comes back as good.
Children perceive fairy tales intuitively and very easily. They live in the magical world with great pleasure and want to return there again and again.

Russian folk tales teach goodness, good always triumphs over evil, but the path to victory can be too long. Fairy tales give the child the first idea of such concepts as good and evil, wisdom and deceit, forgiveness, compassion. If you believe in yourself and don’t deviate from your principles, everything will work out. In the images of fairy-tale heroes, in their interaction with the outside world, the realities of life are adapted for children's perception. Children perceive everything, and even if they don’t realize the morality that the text contains, they at least try to be like the kind, sympathetic and resourceful heroes.
Russian folk tales introduce the child to the vast universe in which he will have to live, with its physical laws, wildlife, history and culture.
Heroes of Russian fairy tales
The main character of a fairy tale is always courageous and fearless. He overcomes all obstacles on the path to his happiness. In the course of the adventures, the hero undergoes a transformation: Ivan the Fool, simple-minded and lazy, at the end of the fairy tale necessarily turns into a handsome young man and marries the princess.
Other characters help the hero overcome trials: wonderful animals, wise advisors. But help is not given so easily: even Baba Yaga helps the hero if he shows himself to be hardworking, well-mannered and purposeful. This expresses popular ideas about human morality and morality. Wonderful helpers have magical means (flying carpet, walking boots) that personify people's dreams.
Women in Russian folk tales are always unusually beautiful and smart. Intelligence, beauty, hard work, resourcefulness, a mandatory attribute - a braid to the waist (hair was previously associated with vitality) - all these are traits that, in the popular imagination, should be present in any girl.
The protagonists of the main characters are dark, evil forces (Kashchei the Immortal, Zmey Gorynych). They are treacherous, cruel, greedy - this is how the concept of violence and evil is expressed in the minds of the people. The more terrible the monster, the more significant the feat of the main character seems. But the fight against dark forces is carried out not only with the help of strength and intelligence: the popular consciousness sometimes endows villains with comic stupidity, because of which they fall into traps set by the main character.
Animal world
Animals in Russian folk tales personify qualities of human character. There were “cliches” of images that were the same for all fairy tales.
For example, the Fox is a cheat and a deceiver. She personifies cunning, deceit, and a penchant for tricks. She will pretend to be weak and use eloquence to get her way. But the Fox is often punished for her tricks (receives a well-deserved punishment for deception), especially if her tricks cause serious harm to one of the heroes.
The wolf personifies greed and anger. But, at the same time, he is stupid and easily deceived by the more cunning characters in the fairy tale. The confrontation between the Wolf and the Fox is especially common, and the Wolf falls for the fox’s tricks again and again, no matter how much he refuses to trust the Fox. But the Wolf is also the personification of death (since he often eats someone). But kind and smart characters always defeat the wolf.
The bear in fairy tales represents brute strength, slowness, and slow-wittedness. He can be either fierce or kind and naive. The bear, as the owner of the forest, has power over other animals. In the image of the Bear one can trace a parallel with the images of rich landowners-serfs. As a result, such a bear is always defeated. But sometimes the Bear also personifies the good forces of nature, giving gifts and helping the hero for hard work and honesty.
And small animals in fairy tales (hares, mice) are cowardly, but kind. They are ready to help, they are good friends. And in difficult moments, real courage can awaken in them. True, they often win victories by accident, since they cannot compare with other characters either in intelligence or strength.
So Russian folk tales are not as simple as they might seem at first glance. They teach us a lot, so even adults should read fairy tales.
