Aesop’s Fables

We’ve been reading some of Aesop’s fables. Did you know Aesop was a Greek storyteller? We found out that each of his stories have a lesson to be learned. So far we have read:

1) The Stork and the Fox

2) The Astronomer

3) The Ant and the Grasshopper

4) The Hare and the Tortoise

This week we are going to read some more and next week we are going to write our own fable together which we will post on our website so you can have a look at our fabulous work.

After we read the stories we listened to them on the radio. Have a listen to them if you’d like.
