Have you ever read the fairy tale, “Jack and the Beanstalk?” Now it is your turn to write your own version. You are to change the characters and setting but NOT the outcome of the story. Be sure to include descriptive vocabulary and phrases. Most importantly, use your imagination and be creative!

After completing this project I could see myself using this in my future classroom. The website was easy to use and I think it would be beneficial for students to use when they could take a break and listen to a story instead of reading one. This could prepare students for the future as they progress into middle and high school or even college and have to listen to lectures. This could help them practice listening skills.
