    Extractions: Your task is work with a partner to create a presentation which compares a Native American folk tale, myth or legend with a popular myth from another culture - Greek, Roman, Egyptian, Early Christian, Asian, African or European. 1. First read pages 20-25 in your Elements of Literature anthology. 2. Next, choose a Native American myth or legend. One person will present the Native American folk tale to the class. In Native American tradition, stories, legends and history were passed down through oral tradition; there were no written documents. Often, storytellers would illustrate their tales with drawings on cave walls or clothing, and even in dirt on the ground. They never read the stories. Instead, the shamans, or storytellers, would engage their audience by telling the folk tale with emotion using different voices, facial expressions and gestures. I expect you to do the same. You are to use a four panel story board as a visual aid during the presentation and supplement your telling with appropriate music, photographs or artifacts. 3. The other partner will present a comparison of your Native American myth or legend to a myth or legend from another culture. They will share an explanation of how the two stories deal differently with a similar theme or event.

    Extractions: Table of Contents Introduction Activities Resources Archived Work ... Culminating Campfire Activity This unit ideally takes place from "Columbus Day" through Thanksgiving. Experiences such as a field trip to The Museum of American Indian Culture and silent "stream of consciousness" sessions in the woods on campus preceed classroom lessons. To enable the children to experience nature as the early inhabitants of our NE woodlands, we take our students to a nearby wooded area. They bring with them a book we've dubbed "Bits and Pieces," a scrapbook-type collection of pre-writing brainstorms, outlines, quotes, pictures, articles, etc. The children record all of the sights, sounds, thoughts, sensations, and imaginings as they sit in the woods for a 30-40 minute period. This experience helps the children establish settings for the myths they will eventually write. They are often surprised at how poetic their pieces sound. Some are turned into " woods poems ."

Pilulaw Khus, Chumash Elder and story teller in Santa Barbara schools, Southern California This book "takes the reader on an exciting adventure into the field of Native American folklore. Following the tradition of Joseph Campbell and John Peabody Harrington, Anderson draws from a wealth of authentic stories, legends, and oral histories recorded from respected tribal elders. Everyone should read for themselves and their children the folklore series of Dr. John Anderson. This book delves into the symbolism of ancient frog stores from around the world.
