We have read a lot of different stories, poems and more throughout out homeschool journey. Aesop’s Fables, nursery rhymes and fairy tales are always stories that are enjoyed.
These Belling the Cat Printables are a great way to study this particular fable in which children will learn that it is one thing to say that something should be done, though quite a different matter to actually do it.
Check out the list of materials that we use with these printables.
