The Weeping Ghost is the true story of La Malinche, the controversial Aztec woman who assisted Cortez in his conquest of Mexico. Lady Moon is a Mayan story that shows the Mayas' keen attention to the night sky. Stories such as Godmother Death and The Boy Who Was Never Afraid are drawn from the post-colonial period and reflect themes found throughout European folklore. Tricking Coyote is a favorite borderland story, pitting the large and unintelligent Coyote against a clever lamb, who tricks him over and over. The victory of the diminutive figure over a powerful adversary is a theme found throughout the world, but it is a special hallmark of Mexican folktales.     Each Start-to-Finish title includes a paperback book, computer book and audio book. Teachers may combine visual and auditory supports to create the best learning scaffolds for each student. With options such as \"read all\" and \"word support,\" support students with the most difficult reading challenges, those who are progressing and those who are transitioning to grade level. Students who use single switches can read the entire computer book independently at their own pace and take the chapter quizzes. Automatic scanning highlights the available on-screen buttons. Students can follow along with the narrator who models good reading or, they can read pages silently, as they would with a paperback book.    Grade 2-3 reading level.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nova Scotia School Book Bureau","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43662896365628,"sku":null,"price":42.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/nssbb.ednet.ns.ca\/products\/start-to-finish-software-myths-and-legends-tales-from-mexico-12566","provider":"Nova Scotia School Book Bureau","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
