Folk tales and legends are an integral part of every society. The characters, places and events they portray are largely drawn from people's way of life and surroundings. Every folk tale and legend, therefore, has its own cultural universe. The Year 4 boys will be watching and analysing a French Canadian legend 'La Chasse Galerie' (The Legend of the Flying Canoe). This will enable the boys to make links to the 'How we express ourselves' unit of inquiry. They will then explore and gain perspective on a different cultural universe. The Year 1 boys are working on the same unit of inquiry during French class. They will view an animated version of the immensely popular French story 'The Little Prince'.
