Super cute little audio - either music and sound effects- a Halloween version of the classic children‘s tale. #spookyghostclub #scarathlon
This tale uses repetition and rhyming to illustrate the story. I can use this story in a classroom in various ways to emphasize literacy skills for my students. One way I can do this is by having a creative writing activity where students come up with their own version of the tale.
There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly is a traditional folktale. This story is fun-loving and catchy as the story is repetitive with lots of rhyming. The story shares the tale of an old lady who swallowed a fly and how she swallowed many other things as well.
“But swallowing the animals is not how this ends, because she coughed so hard...“
I would use this book in my classroom for entertainment purposes. The story focuses on an old lady who swallows a series of animals. The book has great illustrations and is really funny.
Tall tale is the tradiontal literacy type used in this book. This book focuses on an old lady, competing extremes tasks (shallowing animals).
“I don‘t know why she swallowed a bat, imagine that.”
This is a great book to read to elementary students! They get to enjoy the repetition of the story and try to remember why she swallowed each item. When the book is read with appropriate tone and volume, the students will get a good laugh out of it.
