Track Description
This Track is intended for third graders, but could be used in the middle grades too. I developed this Track to incorporate technology into my Language Arts curriculum. I also want to introduce my students to a variety of folktales from different countries. I intend for my students to compare/contrast some of these stories to the more traditional ones we have read in class. Students will read these stories and will be able to identify the characteristics that make them folktales. Students will use some of the given sites as guided tools so that they can write their own folktales/fairytales. Students will keep a portfolio that will include all of their responses to the questions asked as they progress through this unit.
