Law 12

Mrs. J. Montgomery

Fairy Tale Crime

In the fairy tale criminal justice system, the characters from fairy tales and nursery rhymes are represented by two separate yet equally ridiculous groups: the fairy tale police who investigate fairy tale crime, and the fairy tale district attorneys who prosecute fairy tale offenders. These are their stories…

In a group of 2 or 3 MAX determine which fairy tale or nursery rhyme where each of the following crimes occur.

1 - Unlawful demolition of straw houses
2 - Illegal consumption of grandmothers
3 - Abandonment of children in the woods
4 - Inter-species romance
5 - Conversion of humans into amphibians without a license
6 - Offering poison fruit
7 - Tricking little children into trading their livestock for 'magic beans'
8 - Outraging the modesty of women by kissing them without their consent when they are in a magically-induced coma
9 - Breaking and entering, followed by theft of porridge
10 - Failure to pay musicians for pest control services
11 - Employing elves without paying foreign worker levy
12 - Distorting the truth by writing a column suggesting that the Emperor has no clothes on

As a group select one fairy tale (pick up a copy from the teacher) and complete the attached chart.

Use chapter 6 from your textbook to support your understanding.
