THE FOOLISH DONKEY

Objectives for today's class:

• To review all topics studied so far (use of past tense to present past experiences: last vacation, last weekend, yesterday.)

• To start preparing the final project by learning to differentiate the elements of a short story.

We had a great time! - Workshop

Let's begin by reviewing the answers to the workshop (We had a great time!) you did last class. The activities in that workshop summarize all topics we have studied so far. Let's do it as a group.

The foolish donkey

Now, as an activity in preparation for the final project, you are going to read a short story by Aesop and answer some questions about it.

As you can see, the answers to the questions constitute the main elements of a short story. Now, you are going to make up possible answers to the questions.

After making up possible answers to the questions, you are going to rewrite the story using those possible answers. Share your version with the rest of the class.
