Assess students' ability to analyze characters' motivations and resulting consequences across multiple folktales (3-4). Students will identify each character's goal, describe actions and outcomes, compare how differing motives lead to different consequences, and draw evidence-based conclusions about the distinct moral lessons. Tasks include short-answer evidence citations, a comparative paragraph explaining contrasts in morals, and a brief reflection connecting story lessons to real-life choices; emphasize cause-and-effect sequencing and awareness of cultural context.
