Celebrating Stories of Our Canadian Heritage explores the similarities and wisdom found in the stories which have
been told to generations before us, and have survived the test of time
to be told and retold today.
Written in response to
"don't you have anything for older children?", this book explores the
literature which forms the cultural foundation of our country.
Folktales, fairytales and legends from around the world have been
adapted for readers theatre.
General activities invite teachers
to use the scripts as introductions to themes in Social Studies and History
as well as to enhance writing and other language learning experiences.
More than twenty scripts introduce
readers to universal themes about families, community and ongoing concerns
about success, kindness, responsibility…
This book is a collection
of stories from countries such as:
- China
- Russia
- Native Canadian cultures
