Using Internet or library resources, confirm their predictions by reading other cultural presentations of Cinderella such as Cendrillon in the Caribbean, Ashyputtel in Germany, Mufaro's Beautiful Daughters in Africa, etc. Based on their knowledge and experiences, have students predict how Cinderella tales might unfold in different cultures throughout the world. List ways these cultural variants differ from and are similar to Adelita and the familiar European version.
