This document provides a lesson plan for teaching the fable "The Ant and the Grasshopper" to first grade students through reading and music integration. The two-day lesson plan first has students read and discuss the story. On the second day, students reread the story while two students play rhythm instruments to represent the characters - the grasshopper and the busy ant. The class participates by clapping along with their assigned character. The lesson aims to teach students to listen attentively and retell stories, while integrating music standards about beat, tempo and creative expression.
