| Abstract: | As an extension to this activity, educators could ask students what other organisms they could write a folktale about if they were to do this again or how the story might be altered if told from another organism's point of view. Rather than writing a story in prose format, students could be given the option of writing a poem or a song or telling the story through illustrated PowerPoint slides. The next task involved students creating their own folklore story about an organism of their choice, paying attention to specific adaptations that the organism could use to its advantage in its environment. For as long as people have had stories to tell, folklore and tall tales have been a part of social gatherings. [Extracted from the article] |
