Lesson Plan: Tackling Tall Tales
Read and evaluate some of the “tall tales” that children have traditionally been told, and enjoy their silliness while learning to look for evidence and explanation. Use creative writing techniques to create new tales.
Lesson Plan: The Stories We Tell
Get familiar with different media “languages” (e.g., images, sounds, graphics, and words). Think critically about the media we chose to tell a story, how media influence the stories we tell, and who our stories can reach. Tell one story in different ways, using a variety of media, and consider how this story might be told in the future.
