Spotlight on: Grade 2 Library Classes

This is a guest post by RES teacher librarian Beth Redford.


Second grade library classes have been sharing folk tales from around the world. We have been connecting the retellers' storytelling styles to the scholars' own storytelling in their classroom Writing Workshops. We have enjoyed folk tales from the countries of India (One Grain of Rice, shown above),

Liberia,
Japan,
Wales,
and Benin (Dahomey).
