Describe Differences between Myths and Fables

CCSS ELA: RL.4.9

RL.4.9 Compare and contrast the treatment of similar themes and topics (e.g., opposition of good and evil) and patterns of events (e.g., the quest) in stories, myths, and traditional literature from different cultures.

TEKS ELA: 4(9)(A)

4(9)(A) Demonstrate knowledge of distinguishing characteristics of well-known children's literature such as folktales, fables, legends, myths, and tall tales.

This literary response and analysis lesson focuses on describing structural differences between myths and fables. The lesson includes research-based strategies and strategic questions that prepare students for assessments. In this lesson, students read a passage and identify characteristics of either a myth (humans, gods & goddesses, etc.) or a fable (animal characters, moral, etc.). Then, they determine if the passage is a myth or a fable. In addition to the lesson, there are eight pages of Independent Practice and review with questions modeled after current adaptive testing items.
