Imaginative Stories

We started the 2009-10 year reading about the imagination and great reading habits of Grace in Amazing Grace. We followed up by reading the exciting North African Bedoin folktale of Rimonah of the Flashing Sword. Then I played The Rage of Hercules, retold (I edited out the really scary part) by Odds Bodkin and interpreted in ASL by Sarah. We loved all these stories and it gave us good reasons to hit the 398.2 section!
