Hanging Out With Aesop's Fables!

In this exciting Guided Reading Course, students practice and strengthen their reading skills through Guided Reading Lessons. We will be using Aesop's Fables Fables which teach readers valuable life lessons. When the students practice reading these Fables, they will understand and appreciate that these animal characters tell a story that contains a clear moral. Students will learn reading strategies: visualizing and analyzing characters in a story.
We will be using the book, "The Aesop for Children", from the Library of Congress. This is online so I am able to share my screen with the students. All the materials needed are notebooks, pencils, and crayons. We will be working through the Gradual Release Model as well: I do, We do, You do. This way I can access if my students have understood the reading materials.
