Favola means fairy tale in Italian, and this activity creates a multilingual fairy tale in which famous characters explore their surroundings and meet. The focus of the activity is to develop oral comprehension skills using movement and to have having fun while doing so.
Target group and Time

Create the story or use a short story already invented. Create the symbols that represent the characters. For my story I drew 4 symbols:
- Little Red Riding Hood: a girl dressed in red clothes and a wolf or a red hooded cape and a basket basket
- Peter Pan: a green hat with a leaf leaf
- The Three Little Pigs: three pig noses
- Sleeping Beauty: a sleeping girl
Since the job of the students is to act out what the characters do, showing the signs during the story showing the signs help the -telling helps the students to understand which character to act out.
Find setting references in the space where the activity takes place. For example, if the story takes place outside, spot a particular tree or a bush to include in the story.
