Stage 1 and Early Stage 1 students are studying fables this term. These Youtube videos will support the reading.

The magic fish, or The fisherman and his wife, is often categorised as a Grimm’s fairy tale, but it also has an obvious moral.

The fisherman and his wife

Two parodies of the same tale:

The magic fish – Fractured Fairy Tales

Fractured Fairy Tales – The fisherman and his wife

Aesop: biography of a great thinker

The town mouse and the country mouse – Aesop’s fables

City mouse and country mouse

Мышь vs. Печенька (Mouse vs Biscuit)

After reading several versions of the famous Aesop’s fable, the students created their own interpretation of “City Mouse & Country Mouse” as a PhotoPeach slideshow. A combined effort of brainstorming, storyboarding, set creation, photographing, and joint construction of text!
