Zach: I would suggest giving more precise procedures on how the kids will write the folk tale. I would give a step by step structure for the folk tale they will write. Also I would Put your standards you want to meet in here I see no standards or indicators anywhere. Also add some type of presentation of their work.

Zach: I made a few grammatical adjustments as Brer rabbit was written as beer rabbit. I think that the procedures could be a little more explicit and maybe including an objective wouldn't hurt either.
