Instructional Ideas
  • Send worksheets home as a packet over the week or long break
  • Allow pupils to browse the collection of African folktales discussed in each worksheet 
  • Use worksheets separately to reinforce the concept within a small group for targeted practice  
Classroom Considerations
  • Copies are required
  • The unit was designed to accompany the Grace Abounding curriculum; however, worksheets are still applicable, along with the assessments, provided that folktales are obtained and read  
Pros
  • Lessons are written clearly and in detail
  • Worksheets have a clean and neat design
  • A thorough background of the curriculum's purpose is provided 
Cons
  • The font may be difficult to read for some pupils
