Oral Tradition Tales
a CTAG Disseminator Grant

The Oral Tradition Website will focus on different oral tradition genres such as Pourquoi Tales, Tall Tales, Multicultural Tales, and Tales Told Twice. It is a resource for teachers and a site for students to access. There are lessons for teachers to download that will lead them through the steps of teaching each genre to their students with additional activities that enhance the teaching of each genre. There are resource lists of books and other materials to use. For students, there are story starters and other links that students can access to get ideas to write their own tales in the style of each particular genre. We invite students to submit their writing and other related work which will be posted for others to read.
