Chicken Little

Chicken Little told the story of a little chicken who had an acorn fall on her head. She thought that the sky was falling so she went to each of her friends to tell them the news. All of her friends went with her to tell the king this terrible news. On the way there, they ran into a fox that tried to trick them into going into his den so he could eat them. One of Chicken Little’s friends realized this and they ran away. Finally they got to the king, to only be told that Chicken Little was wrong. He showed them the acorn he found on her head and told them that the sky was not falling. Everyone was relieved and lived happily ever after.  

I chose to read Chicken Little because it was one of the featured stories on the main screen. I was quite disappointed with this story. It was extremely short and not very engaging for students to read or be read to. This story came in a few ways. You could read it by yourself or have it read to you. I think these eBooks could help ELL and ESL students work on their fluency. It can give them someone to listen to and most of the words are very basic which would help their confidence to grow.
