First+Grade+Folk+Tales

= Learning About Folktales =

= First grade students at Tullar have been learning about characteristics of folktales. Students have learned that folktales: 1. Do NOT have royalty; 2. Usually have 3 of something; 3. Have animals that act like people; and 4. Have a villain. =

= =

= To support what the first grade teachers are doing in the classroom with Common Core, students thought about all the different folktales we had shared so far. They chose ONE villain from a story and created a WANTED poster for that character. Students had to use textual evidence to prove the crime! Take a look at our WANTED posters! (Note students used "kid" spelling.) =
