Locate two points for discussion from each. Copy the quotations onto Post-its. This is a 10 minute prep activity. Place your post-its on the board when you are finished. Initial or sign on the back of the post-it.
Go to the board. Read the post-its. Select two statements. Take them with you to your seat. Now, react to the quotations. Visualize your thinking by writing on paper. Why did you select the quotations you did? Do you agree or disagree?

Aesop's Fables
Let's look at some samples. What do you notice about the fables? How would you define "fable?"
#1 For homework, write a one-page report about Aesop. Who was he? Where did he live? What did he write? etc. Do NOT use Wikipedia. Look elsewhere. Give credit to your sources. (25 pts.)
#2
Read and summarize five of Aesop's fables. Your summaries should be two sentences in length each.
State the moral or message of each fable and explain why the message is or is not a useful message. Post on CANVAS. (50 pts.)
