Tall Tales

Tall Tales I did the same as both Fairy Tales and Fables. I sat with the students on the carpet and discussed what we thought a Tall Tale might be and then created an anchor chart. Once we created an anchor chart the students needed to come up with examples of tale tales. 

After lunch everyday to help calm down students we would then read an example of a tall tale. After each story i would have students turn and talk about what made it a tall tale.
