Description

Class Experience

In this class we will read and respond to the fable about a crow trying to get a drink of water out of a deep pitcher. We'll talk about what a fable is, read the fable, have some time to discuss the meaning and draw pictures of either the original fable or the learner's own version. Each learner will have a chance to tell the story in their own words while showing their picture (this is a form of Charlotte Mason style narration).

In the class we will briefly discuss vocabulary such as...

Students will improve their English vocabulary and learn to think about what the 'moral' of a story is.

We will be reading from 'The Aesop for Children' by Milo Winter, which is available on the Library of Congress website.
