Today, we looked at “Creation” stories, such as Rudyard Kipling’s “Just So” Stories. He wrote stories about things like how the camel got its hump, how the leopard got its spots, etc.
We watched a 10 minute video on “How the Whale Got its Throat”, where a narrator reads the story and there’s some animation to it. As they watched, students took a 5 question quiz on it.
After that, students wrote either a creation story or a fairy tale, based upon the characteristics we discussed in class.
