Hi everyone! I hope you had a nice weekend! I would like for you to look at more fables this week. Some of you emailed me very good responses to the questions I asked last week. Thank you!
Here is a link to the fable The Ant and the Grasshopper on YouTube. I hope you enjoy watching it. This is just for fun.

Grades 3-5: Please read The Shepherd Boy, The Fox and the Grapes and The Dog’s Reflection. These are all very short. Choose ONE of these stories and write a short 2-3 sentence description of the main character. Be sure to include words that describe the character well. In your description, I would love to see you use a simile to describe the main character (example: He was as sly as a fox). This is NOT required, but it shows that you put some creative thought into your work. Use the following link:

Grades 1-2:
Read The Shepherd Boy using the link below. In a sentence or two, please tell me why honesty is so important. If the boy would have been honest, how might the story have unfolded differently? You may send a video with your explanation or write it down.
