Program Description
Elementary school teachers requested this program to fulfill their k-4 Common Core Curriculum topic: "MYTHS, FABLES & TALL TALES!" Myths were devised to explain natural phenomena. They were soon peopled with gods and goddesses with a habit of playing tricks on humans. (Be careful what you wish for King Midas!) Aesop invented a brand-new type of tale to instruct good behavior--FABLES. THE TORTOISE & THE HARE will have your students cheering for their favorite. And finally good ol' AMERICAN TALL TALES. Stories that grew with each telling! These stories grew so big, they became TALL...TALL TALES! We tell the story of Paul Bunyan! It's a lot of dress up and audience participation. Photo opportunities galore! And there's plenty of wry humor to entertain students and teachers alike
