Hello and Welcome to our web site! This site was developed for the University of South Florida School of Library and Information Science & Egypt Lake Elementary School & Partnership Library Tampa Bay Community Multi-cultural Outreach Grant.
The purpose of this project is to increase cultural awareness and celebration of diversity for children at Egypt Lake Elementary School. As improving reading and writing are on-going goals of Egypt Lake, this project will provide opportunities to stimulate life long learning through enjoyment of reading and good children's literature. Use of folk tales representing various cultural groups in guided reading experiences will include valuable dialogue and dramatic presentations to promote reading comprehension while stimulating cultural understandings.
Below you will find links to some of the many variations of Cinderella stories that you can purchase!
