Aesop Fables
These stories are short and very accessible for teaching English and story related activities.
Dear Subscribers,
We’ve been busy consolidating our many readers, exercises and supplementary materials related to Aesop fables.
I find the stories fascinating and very easy to use in class. Check out our full playlist of the stories on our YouTube channel.
Students in many cases will be familiar with the stories in their L1 and that makes them a perfect teaching material. Check out this presentation of 14 of the most famous Aesop fables.
In our lesson library we have many Aesop story materials but start with this new one for subscribers - full folders of exercises and PowerPoint readers for the stories.
Each story has a PPTx and includes full text, video, retelling/sequencing cards, creative writing retelling templates and more …
*** One note of caution, check out each story thoroughly, some might not be completely appropriate for certain classes - Aesop is pretty direct storytelling!
Also, see this related prior post about Fables, Fairytales and Folktales.
Happy teaching and learning,
ELT Buzz.
