  “Three Wishes”
Once a poor woodcutter and his wife lived in a little cottage in a big forest.
One day, the woodcutter said to himself, “My wife and I are so poor and hungry.
We work hard and get so little in return.”
Just then a fairy appeared. “I heard what you said. I will help you. Your next
three wishes shall be granted.” Then the fairy disappeared.
The woodcutter hurried home and told his wife what had happened. “We
could ask for riches or a beautiful house,” said the man. “Or a whole kingdom or
pearls and diamonds,” said his wife.
They could not decide what to wish for. Finally, the man looked at the crust
of bread on his plate. “I wish i had a big sausage,” he said and a great sausage
fell upon the table. “You have been foolish,” said his wife. “One of the wishes has
now been granted and we just have a big sausage.”
“But we do have the two wishes left,” said the man. “We can still wish for the
riches and the kingdom.”
“It’s your fault that we can’t ask for even more. It’s all your fault for being so
foolish!” “I’m tired of your complaints,” said the man. “I wish that sausage would
hung from you’re the end of your nose.”
The next minute, the sausage was hanging from the woman’s nose. She rally
complained now.
‘We can still ask for riches,” said the man.
“What can we do with riches? I have a sausage hanging from my nose and it’s all
you fault!”
Finally, the woodcutter said, “I wish the sausage weren’t here at all.” The
sausage vanished. The woodcutter and his wife had used up their three wishes.
They had no riches, no kingdom, no pearls, or diamonds, nor even a sausage!

let's discuss the story after reading or while reading it.

I have a guided questions here, and I want you to write them down in your
notebook.
Analysis and Discussion
1. Did the woodcutter think very well about the things he wished for? Ok,
Why do you think so?
Excellent, very good answer
2. Do you think the three wishes were wasted? Alright, Why do you say so?
3. Is the story of the woodcutter real or make-believe? Yes, it is not, Why?
Ok, very well said!
4. If you were the woodcutter, what would you have wished for? Why?
And the last question
5. What is the message of the story?
Ok,.

Now, let's distinguish the reality and fantasy in the story.

fanciful

When do we say it’s just a fantasy? 
Great! Now, I think all of you understand our lesson, I think you are ready
now for our quiz and next activity.

E. Values integration
As children, you must learn how to use good judgment on things whether
they are reality or fantasy. We should learn how to judge things/materials
that we are reading if they are true or not.
