Folklore Project for Accelerated

Your group will create a **museum box** of “artifacts” using stories from mythology, tall tales, fables, and legends. These need to address our quarter theme of: “What we can learn from stories of the past?”

Each group will:

1. Choose a fable, a myth, a tall tale, and a legend.

2. Give a brief summary of the story.

3. Choose a picture that symbolizes that story. Explain the symbolism.

4. Describe the values the story represents. What is the message? Are these representing positive or negative characteristics?

Each “box” needs to represent one genre/story. BE SURE TO LABEL THE GENRE! You are welcome to add voiceovers, video, music, and pictures to enhance your project.
