Story Grammar, Sequencing and Retell Activities for Folk Tales and Fables

Building literacy skills are crucial for children with language delays. This set of five fables and folk tales was designed to help children improve their understanding of story grammar, comprehension, sequencing, and story-retelling skills.

Being familiar with common fairy tales and fables is essential for young children. Many children’s books, TV, and movies make reference to these classic stories. Having an understanding or familiarity with the original story allows the children to better understand what they are reading or watching.
