Fact, Fiction or Folklore

As a class we will be traveling the stories of the Civil War through literature. First your child will learn what fact, fiction and folklore means. After a class read-aloud, discussion, and a quiz your child will be reading and excerpt of literature from the Civil War. After they read their passage they will decide which category it falls under, fact, fiction or folklore, and will then add a pamphlet about the passage they read to a class bulletin board. The bulletin board will allow the your child's peers to check out their work!
