In this project we will use folktales and songs to reinforce the 5Cs of the National Foreign Language Standards: Communication, Cultures, Connections, Comparisons, and Communities. The format of the lessons will be as follows:

1. The text of the folktale/song
2. Vocabulary and new expressions
3. Comprehension questions
4. Role play situations/lessons learned from the folktale
5. Essay

Click the images for the audio and click the story titles to download the MS Word document of exercises for each clip. Follow the instructions in the file, then upload to the class Oncourse drop box.
