What does this 3rd grade fables and folktales unit cover?

It introduces what makes a fable, folktale or myth, how to find a story's moral or central message, and stories from Greece, China, Italy, Norway, Ukraine, Germany and Native American tradition. By the end a child should retell a tale and explain its lesson in one sentence.

How does RepeatWatch help with story lessons?

Use Repeat one on a short Aesop's fable so your child can retell it, or set an A–B loop on the ending where the moral appears. Slow a read-aloud to 0.75× for a new reader, save stories on keys 1–9, and use Stop after N loops.
