Our role as teachers
is very important for the community development. There's a wide range of things, resources and
tools available to help all the teachers in several contexts. Therefore, there
are many reasons to teach our children a second language. This must be focused
on communication. I want to remain you some ideas of Noam Chomsky, who believes that children are born with an
inherited ability to learn any human language. He also believes that every
child has a ‘language acquisition device’ which encodes the major principles of
a language and its grammatical structures into the child’s brain. It means
children learn new vocabulary and apply structures to make sentences in a
natural way.

According to known writers,
Fairy tales are a subgenre of Folk tales and both almost always involve some
element of magic and good triumphing over evil. It’s important to notice that
if there's a fairy in the story, it's a fairy tale. Fairy tales include stories
which have a moral and a clearly symbolic
underlying structure. It has a message relating to attitudes
maintained between magic and the marvelous fairies. To talk about Folk
tales, we must have their origins in what we call the oral tradition. This
means the story was first passed down orally by storytellers. Folktales (or
folklore) are defined as "stories that grow out of the lives and
imaginations of people, or folk." They eventually were written down, which is why you're able to read
them in a book now, but they weren’t written down first. Remember Folk and Fairy tales are instructive;
they have a teaching, particularly for children.

ResponderEliminarI believe they are so diferent because the first one are fiction and made by people and the second one are real because are thing that happen to people.
ResponderEliminarFairy tales are a subgenre of folk tales and almost always involve some element of magic and good triumphing over evil.
ResponderEliminarWell, as some known writers said the differences are not so many but the fairy tales gap is located in the written which contains magic characters and fairy elements and Folks tales are just passed down by oral tradition.
ResponderEliminarThe fairy tales describe a romantic story generally but in the folk tales reflect the beliefs of the people acording the own culture, traditions, showing the fears to certain customs.
ResponderEliminarthe huge tie, between them are thiers elements.
ResponderEliminarfolk tale got dayly people and dayly activities most of the time with a message but fairy tales always got magic place and people with a main porpuse too...
Folk tales is the broad category. First transmitted orally like a cultural tradition with magic stories and Fairy tales use a part of folk tales with a fairy in the stories and we can found it in books.
ResponderEliminarFairy tales are about ordinary people who somehow get caught up in magical events. Fairies tales are full of strange and wonderful happenings. However Folktales are stories passed one person to another these tales weren`t written but exist in the memory of humanity.
ResponderEliminarImaginary stories, people, fairies, animals with magical powers and traditional beliefs, legends in the others are a very funny pedagogical experience like strategy to teaching of English Language.
ResponderEliminarAt first sight both are the same but Fairy tales are subgenre from folk tales ,also fairy tales is focus on the moral and teaching for children. On the contrary Folk tales is a story that some culture has lived and it was passed down orally by storytellers,and it talks about imagination of people.
ResponderEliminarI think that they are different by that fairy tales has fantasiosoos elements, while the folk tales are naraciones performed by real persons of a real experience that is transmitted from generation to generation.
ResponderEliminarthere isn't much difference between folk tales and fairy tales. But the presence of witches, dragons, trolls, magic spells, or other magical elements help distinguish fairy tales from folk tales.
ResponderEliminarThe truth is that folk tales are very similar to fairy tales, I think one of the differences would be the imaginary characters that appear in fairy tales and folk tales that always lead us to teach us a lesson, while in fairy tales, it creates an imaginary world where the characters have unrealistic skills, but that the end of the day for children is the most wonderful in the world and these characters often end up as their idols.
ResponderEliminarWell, the different is in the fairy tales, most of the time can be known in text, oral way, movies and records and generally it´s characters are princesses,animals and witches, meanwhile the folk tales just can be known popularly in dialogues and therefore, are forgotten easier than fairy tales.
ResponderEliminarFrom my point view, there are big differences between fairy and folk tales, according reading, day in and day out we listen that fairy tales are more wonderful, fantastic; that´s to say that It´s fanciful to motivate the learning in anyone for instance it´s a strength because they´re so enchanted by them and open their brain to imagination and understanding. And other hand folk tales are produced in oral way, perhaps someone talks us an anecdote like a fiction happening
ResponderEliminarI consider that not there are many differences, however Folk Tales are narrations the oral tradition and it subgenre are Fairy tales, related to achieve a happy ending , thanks to the performance of a magical object in order to give a teaching.
ResponderEliminarAlthough doesn’t exist many differences, mainly the folk tale is a genre, is based on the oral tradition and can give us an important teach lesson. The fairy tale has a magic admixture and the good always wins.
ResponderEliminarI think that a folktale is a story diffused orally in a given culture, and a fairy tale is a literary creation. Once a folktale is written down, that particular variant becomes a fairy tale, but purely literary stories can be fairy tales too.
ResponderEliminarBoth are pretty similar, but fairy tales are like a subgenre of folk tales. The most common difference is that fairy tales includes unreal situation and some magic characters like witches, dragons, kings, castles… and folk tales is passed down by oral tradition, even some tales includes this kind of characters but are more than myths and legends.
ResponderEliminarFairy tales have magic stories and characters such as princesses, gnomes, globins etc. Most of the time ending in happy way. Folk tales sometime are stories about real people, town or places they are share by oral comunication, the culture is important to create this kind of tales.
ResponderEliminarIn fairy tales commonly we find magic characters and several kind of objects and subjects that sometimes help or make even difficult the happy end of the story. The folk tales generally leave us something to reflect on . I strong recommend Grimm's stories you will be surprise.
