As I was scouring Pinterest this past week, I came across some printables for Paul Bunyan and Johnny Appleseed. It reminded me of stories that I learned when I was in school. It got me thinking that I have never taught my children any of these stories or read them any “tall tales”! Thus began my search for free printables to create my own Tall Tales unit study for the kids.
Here are some fun resources I found for teaching Tall Tales:
Tall Tales Notebooking Pages from The Notebooking Nook – make your very own Tall Tales Notebook!
FREE Tall Tales Wheel from Adventures of the Polka-Dotted Teacher – you can use any tall tale you want. This is a fun craft type of activity that will help your kids examine the
story by answering the questions with drawings!
