ACTIVITY 2

The character that we would like to be friends with would be the witch, because she has plenty of food and a lot of money. And the character we think we have the least in common is also the witch because she is very mean, she likes to eat children, and she has supernatural powers.

ACTIVITY 3

The message of the fairytale is that you shouldn't sucumb to temptations like when the kids were tempted to go into the witches house because she has plenty of food. And that you should never give up, because one way or another you will find your way back to where you want, like when the kids managed to find their way home.
