Folk tales are a way of learning about life's problems, customs, traditions, and beliefs, and<br />
they often share common themes, such as the struggle between good and evil, or wisdom and<br />
ignorance. This project looks at the global community and cultural diversity through folk tales.<br />
Although children around the world usually know "The Three Little Pigs," and "Sleeping Beauty,"<br />
they often know little about the folk tales of their own countries, and almost nothing about<br />
those of other countries. Students will introduce the folk tales of their own countries to project<br />
participants in other countries. They will share these tales through artwork and writing.<br />
