Favorite tall tale…hmmm..it would probably have to be Pecos Bill or John Henry. Tough to decide! This looks amazing! Our Social Studies curriculum briefly introduces Paul Bunyan and Annie Oakley to the students, and many of them were very confused on exactly who Paul Bunyan was, so I think this could further describe that section of text for them, and help them have a better understanding. Very excited about the opportunity!

So sorry you're having a bad day! :( I heart John Henry! This looks like such a great pack! I don't have many resources at all for teaching this unit. This would be great to win! Thanks so much for the opportunity!

Love this feedback from daraprez916 :
ReplyDeleteBy using this unit in conjunction with A-Z Reading's Tall Tale Readers, this unit was one of my favorites. The kids LOVED creating a sock puppet show to retell some of the tall tales read that week. With the 2nd graders I have this year, creating the script on their own was too time consuming, but I was able to find tall tale scripts for different reading levels free online that I used. Worth every cent! Thank you

You had a rough day because you over slept by 2 hours!! I wish that I could over sleep by 2 hours! With my two little ones I am happy if I get to sleep in until 6! I'm sorry you had a rough start to your morning though!! Tomorrow will be better!
ReplyDeleteGuess I am fond of Paul Bunyan, being from the midwest.

Sorry you overslept...what a way to start the day. (I once did in my first teaching job...they tried calling from school and I slept through that, too. Finally they sent someone over. Talk about an awful day!)

This unit look awesome!! My favorite tall tale character is a toss up between Johnny Appleseed and Paul Bunyan. I am keeping my fingers cross that I may be the lucky winner.

My favorite tall tale of all time is Paul Bunyan.

As a lifelong Midwesterner, my heart belongs to Paul Bunyan.
