Today we read Trust Me, Jack's Beanstalk Stinks!
 We hear the story from the giant's perspective.

We had great discussion comparing the stories so far.

All versions have common threads; a giant, Jack, a beanstalk that grows from magic beans etc...

But other details differ. For example, in today's story, the giant is the 'good guy' and Jack the 'bad guy'. This is the opposite from the other versions of the story.


We had great application discussion around how something like this might happen in school or out in the schoolyard. Depending on who's perspective you see the story from, the person who is wronged and the person who is the 'wrongdoer'  might change. Hope that makes sense so you can extend this conversation at home.
