Pickpick

Hare and Tortoise by Alison Murray is a great TL story that would be a nice lesson for the classroom. Of course, it tells how slow and steady can still win the race and you don‘t have to be the fastest. I would use the strategy of RA, so the students can all listen and discuss when the story is done.
http://www.cpalms.org/Public/PreviewResourceLesson/Preview/60046. The UDL I would use is 3.3, guide information processing and visualization.

jmartucci I would use ESOL strategy 10 and have them use think, pair, share to discuss the story. #ucflae3414su19 5y
Estradan The resource you provided is great for 1st graders to learn about fables and learn about characters. The ESOL strategy you aligned it with fits perfectly with this resource because it‘ll give students to discuss what they thought the message of the story was. 5y
alexialovesmith This book would make a perfect read aloud. I used to love this story as a child, so giving students the opportunity to listen and then discuss it with one another is awesome! 5y
DrSpalding Going straight to our department of education website is a smart move Jaclyn. I‘m adding this version to my stack. Quality traditional literature and current variants are excellent read aloud‘s in the primary classroom. 5y

Hare and Tortoise is traditional literature adapted by Allison Murray. I like this particular adaptation because there are cool text features, like a map of the course! I would love to turn this into a RT script. UDL Strategy 5.3 would apply to this lesson because students could practice their parts, building fluency, and then perform! ESOL Strategy 38 would also fit nicely, because students could practice their short parts at home #ufclar3414sp18

KaitlynN https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=XJ1UD7o3xB8 this is a link to some children performing a readers theatre. It doesn‘t seem to be the Allison Murray adaptation but, I think it is a good example of how this could go in a real classroom. Plus they look like they are having so much fun! Especially Hare. She got into it. (edited) 6y

Mehso-so

The same story as you'd think with the hare not being so much of a dick. Pretty cute, but nothing exceptional. (8/20)
