Fable instructional videos begin with a 4-minute course introduction. Twenty lessons, each ranging from 20 to 29 minutes, explain to the student descriptive and fable writing concepts for each lesson in the student book. Video instructors will explain writing model themes, draw out concepts modeled in the lessons, discuss vocabulary, ask students rhetorical questions, and more. They will also direct students to complete tasks which might require stopping the video occasionally to write responses. ~ Ruth
