Chicken Little

This edition of Chicken Little, as retold by Elinor Chamas, is not radically different from most other editions I have seen. It follows the traditional story: Chicken Little, convinced the sky is falling, informs his friends and all of them proceed to try to tell the king.
When I used this with my first and second graders in clinic, I had the most success when they were re-reading bits of it out loud pretending to be characters. Exaggerated shouts of “Oh no!” seemed to be the highlight of the lesson for the children.
