The Little Red Hen

: Parents, Our story in Open Court for the week is "The Little Red Hen". We have discussed that this story is a folktale. Ask your child if he/ she can remember what a folktale is. We have read many different versions of the story and have compared them to the original one in our Open Court Series. After reading other versions, we went back and read the one in our reading series. We then listed all of the key words from the story and made a tagxedo. My challenge to you is ask your child what he/ she remembers from the story. Ask what is his favorite part and why. When you have done this, please leave me a comment and let me know. I cannot wait to hear from you all!

  1. Mia’s favorite part from the story was when the cat was asleep on the couch, because she looked so cute. :)

    A folktale is a story passed from person to person for a long time.

    I remember: The little red hen took the wheat to the mill.

    My favorite part: At the end when the little red hen made the dog, the cat, and the mouse clean up because they were sleeping.

    Hailee said it means its passed down from your word. Her favorite part was when the little red hen made a cake, because cakes are yummy!
