Focus on Communication through Folk Tales and Story-Telling.
Behrens, Susan J.; Neeman, Amy R.; Newman, David D.
Research and Teaching in Developmental Education, v19 n1 p49-53 Fall 2002
Offers suggestions for using folk tales from around the world and story-telling for classroom instruction. Because folk tales are ultimately about communication and the way people in a society interact, a multi-cultural class can make good use of them. Offers examples for application to language arts and social science courses. (Contains 9 references.) (NB)
