Folk Tale Puppet Show

I've got to share this fun 

lesson! 

We finished studying folk tales...

and the students paired up and chose

their favorite from the anthology to present~

The rubric was as such:

identify the genre, describe main characters, give brief summary

and moral of story, rewrite the folk tale/fable/tall tale into a play script,

create puppets for the main characters, and present to the class. 

It was so fun watching the students perform these! I brought in 

our karaoke machine so their voices would carry, 

and a long tablecloth to create a screen.

This picture is from a pair's retelling of

 Coyote and Eagle Steal the Sun and Moon...

hope your end of the year is wrapping up nicely!!!
