Traditional Book Report

Due Date is changed to April 4th. 

Traditional stories are ones that were passed down orally for many generations before being written down.  They include fairy tales, folk tales, tall tales, legends, fables, and myths.  In the Public Library, these books are found in the children's nonfiction section under call numbers beginning with J398.2Students are required to choose a book from this section of the library.

The stories are many and varied, familiar and new, and rich with cultural heritage and moral themes.  I hope the students will take advantage of the wonderful opportunity they have to explore this genre.  We will certainly enjoy studying some of the books together at school! Below are a few examples:
