The student will compare and contrast different versions of the same story by different authors, from different cultures, or from different points of view using two videos and graphic organizers.
First, students will watch the video The Three Little Pigs and complete the Story Elements Graphic Organizer.
Next, students will watch the video The Three Little Javelinas and complete a second Story Elements Graphic Organizer.
Finally, the students will hold a comparison analysis discussion either in a whole group or in a small group.
Focus discussion questions on characters and setting, such as:
- What were some of the similarities you saw between the three pigs and the three Javelinas?
- What were the similarities between the houses in each story?
