Finding a Fable...

Here's a few links to fable and folktales resources. You are NOT required to have one from here, but it could be useful. I would encourage you to speak with family & friends about traditional stories from their experiences (where they may have lived, grown up or traveled to). 

Truly, it needs to be a simple story that has a relevant moral for elementary students!
