The site offers a step-by-step introduction, taking very small steps indeed. Technology teachers may find this one useful, and the site would also work well for a parent-and-student introduction to the Web.

Animal Myths and Legends

— OzPlanet

K-4 0 favorites 0 promising practices http://www.planetozkids.com/oban/index.html Last updated: Fri, 08/27/2021 - 11:48 share

How It Works

Legends and Myths can retell universal truths. Students can have fun learning that similar stories appear in many cultures. This Australian site has collected a number of legends and packaged them, nicely illustrated, in a single collection that’s easy to browse. Upper elementary students can use these on their own, or try them as a read-along for primary students. Lots of good ideas here.

In the Classroom

Have students try out this site on individual computers, or as a learning center. By accessing the "Animal" section, and then "weird animal facts," the site provides some excellent class room openers to spur discussion! Did you know Tigers have striped skin, not just striped fur? Or that Penguins can jump 6 feet in the air? Students will definitely find these odd openers interesting, whether it be in a biology class or language arts!
