Aesop's Fables
Your task is to learn about Aesop and to adapt his fables to contemporary times. You will adapt an Aesop's fable using people you know or know of in situations that represent the present. 1. Read some Aesop's Fables and select one that you and your partner would like to adapt to contemporary times.
2. Once your group has chosen a fable decide who your characters will be. They can be yourselves or people you know personally or about. You must also decide where your fable is to take place. Remember, it must be a place you are familiar with. 3. Now that setting and characters have been selected you will, each write your own adaptation of the fable. 4. At all times, make sure
that your fable and its moral are clearly related.
5. With your fable completed, youand your partner must decide how to divide it into the four or five slides you will be using in your Power Point presentation, so, you must decide which part of the fable (text) will occupy each slide. 6. In addition to your fable slides you must design a title slide which will include the project title, the name of your fable listed as an adaptation, then your names as the authors. Resources
