Fable - Presentation
This presentation is the perfect way to introduce your students to fables. It goes through what makes up a fable, how it differs from other folk tales, and goes through the history of fables, including analysis of a number of Aesop’s fables. It is a part of a larger fables unit for students, where they learn to read for the moral lesson, in both ancient and modern examples, before constructing their own fable.
