Instructional Ideas
- Project onto the board for learners to complete as a class
- Add to a reading assessment to determine placement in reading groups
- Connect to a unit on Aesop's fables
Classroom Considerations
- Designed for first graders, but vocabulary and sentence structure may be better suited for older readers
- Questions do not address the theme of the story, which is the main point of teaching Aesop's fables; consider adding a question about what the story is trying to say
- Does not include an answer key
- Final page is blank
Pros
- Passage and questions are on the same page
Cons
- Title is not descriptive, preventing learners from making predictions about the reading
- Passage does not include the fable's moral, which makes the ending more difficult to understand
