Appreciation of Life Skills
Literature and Values

The poem ‘The Crocodile and the Monkey’ is a retelling of a
famous Panchatantra tale. Do you think that the poem has a
message? Discuss in the class.

Now, let us do an activity and rewrite classic stories as
modern tales. In groups of five, think of a popular classic
story that you have heard/read. Then, think of the changes
that can be made to the story to suit our times. Rewrite the
narrative and present it before the class.
