1 BLM 48 Two fables The Enemies Two men who were enemies were on a voyage in the same boat, so naturally each tried to separate himself as far as possible from the other. One man stayed in the front, or bow, of the boat, and the other remained in the back, or stern. Without warning, a great storm arose and the boat began to sink. Which end of the boat will sink first? asked the man at the stern. The bow will go down first, replied the captain. That s fine, said the man. Then I can have the satisfaction of watching my enemy drown! But of course his revenge was short, for his end of the boat sank soon afterward, and he too was drowned. Do not rejoice in another s misfortune while you are both in the same boat. Aesop Three raindrops A raindrop was falling out of a cloud, and it said to the raindrop next to it: I m the biggest and best raindrop in the whole sky! You are indeed a fine raindrop, said the second, but you are not nearly so beautifully shaped as I am. And in my opinion it s shape that counts, and I am therefore the best raindrop in the whole sky. The first raindrop replied, Let us settle this matter once and for all. So they asked a third raindrop to decide between them. But the third raindrop said: What nonsense you re both talking! You may be a big raindrop, and you are certainly well shaped, but, as everybody knows, it s purity that really counts, and I am purer than either of you. I am therefore the best raindrop in the whole sky! Well, before either of the raindrops could reply, they all three hit the ground, and became part of a very muddy puddle. by Terry Jones From Fairy Tales (Puffin) 62
2 Teaching notes for Text form: Moral fable Medium: Illustrated book Field: Human weakness Tenor: Storyteller to general audience Mode: Written OTHER RESOURCES A selection of other books of fables. A video recording of storytellers (optional). Draft and publishing paper. INTRODUCING THE UNIT Explain that a fable is a short story that ends with a lesson or moral. Many of the fables we know today are attributed to Aesop, a Greek slave who supposedly lived in Asia Minor about 600 BC. Read Aesop s fable first, then read Terry Jones modern fable. Can students see any similarities in the structure of the fables? WHAT S THE MORAL? Highlight the difference between the concrete story and the symbolic fable. Lead students to understand that the function of the moral is to explain the symbolic meaning of the text. Discuss a well known fable such as The Hare and the Tortoise. Have students discuss it and explain it in their own words. Talk about how it demonstrated the moral, Slow and steady wins the race. When students write their own morals and share them with the class, explain that there is no right or wrong answer as each person takes a personal message. WHAT A PERFORMANCE! If necessary revise the structure of narrative texts. If possible view recordings of story tellers. Once students have rehearsed the story telling have them tell the story to a group of friends or to another class. Encourage students to discuss and review their own work looking for strengths and areas that can be improved. POINT OF VIEW Talk about the concept of first and third person narrative. Have students identify the narrator in other books and stories they have read, and in their own writing. Encourage students to share their first person narratives with the class. CHANGE THE CHARACTERS Have groups discuss ideas for cartoons that have the same moral and problems as one of the fables, but different characters (for example two students in trouble with the teacher). Students will then need to sequence and link important aspects of the story in a cartoon. After students have drawn a cartoon they can tell a story about it to a partner. WRITE A FABLE If necessary revise the structure of a narrative. Encourage students to use other fables as a model for their own writing. Published fables could be compiled into a class book. FOLLOW-UP/EXTENSION Invite groups to act out the two fables. Encourage students to emphasise the human weaknesses which the fables highlight. 63

Sometimes the moral is not stated at the end of a fable. It s up to the reader or listener to figure it out. Write a moral for Three Raindrops. Use your best handwriting!
