Japanese fairytales

Here are some Japanese fairytales for your Toontastic Kamishibai

(My students will be producing short -- 6 slides -- kamishibai using the iPad app, Toontastic. They will choose a fairy tale to produce in teams of 3, with each student illustrating two slide and writing narrative and dialogue for the slide. Then they will produce their final version on Toontastic, drawing the scenes and narrating the story from their scripts.)
