What is a Philanthropist?

What does a philanthropist do? Help your class explore philanthropy using character development and literacy ideas. Learners will define and give examples of philanthropy, listen to The Lion and the Mouse, discuss how the characters help each other, and create a flip book focused on the events from the beginning, middle, and end of the story. At the end, have partners practice retelling the story to each other. Further extension activities are listed to help you celebrate National Philanthropy Day as a class.
