Book Plan

Aesop's Fables Book Plan (Littles, K-3, 1 Week)

Can a tiny mouse save a mighty lion? This week your child or students find out, one fable at a time.

This five-day Book Plan for grades K to 3 is built around five classic fables: The Tortoise and the Hare, The Lion and the Mouse, The Crow and the Pitcher, The Ant and the Grasshopper and The Boy Who Cried Wolf. Each 30 to 45 minute lesson has a short retelling, a simple plan, three original discussion questions and one ready-to-print page, so no other book is needed. Kids learn what a moral is, sort kind and unkind choices, test the crow's pebble trick with real water, write a fable of their own and put on a stick puppet show for Friday Show and Tell.

Perfect for kindergarten through third grade read-alouds, character education and homeschool families.
