Page 1 In a beautiful jungle, lived a very playful monkey named Mateo.

Page 2 He was always looking for delicious fruits to eat, but one day, he found a
chocoramo on the road.
Page 3 Mateo was curious to try it, but that was not what he had been taught at
home. So, he decided to look for the owner of the chocoramo.
Page 4 Mateo went through the jungle, asking the animals if it was theirs.
Page 5 He asked the Jaguar; do you eat chocolate?
“No, I eat meat” he said.
Page 6 He asked the Turtle; do you eat chocolate?
“No, I eat leaves,” she said.
Page 7 Finally, he came to a tree where a Toucan named Tomas lived.
Page 8 Mateo asked Tomas; do you eat chocolate?
“Yes, I do. I lost my snack while playing.” he said.
Page 9 The monkey returned the chocoramo to Tomas, who was grateful and offered
to share it with him.
Page 10 Mateo and Tomas sat together and enjoyed the delicious chocoramo under
the warm sun of the Jungle. Together, they had many fun adventures in the
beautiful jungle.

Procedure Estimated time

The main objective of this lesson plan is to provide an interactive and

educational activity taking into account the use of the fable: "The Monkey and
the Chocoramo." Through this story, students will be introduced to the world
of reading in a fun and meaningful way, they will also be taught vocabulary
related to animals and an important lesson about honesty will be conveyed.
The class is intended to be developed in 3 moments, which are organized as
follows:

 Pre-reading:
-Show pictures and say the respective names of the animals that appear in the
fable (jaguar, turtle, toucan, monkey).
- Then, place pictures of the animals (jaguar, turtle, toucan, monkey) on one
side of the classroom and the pictures of food (Chocoramo, meat, fruits and
leaves) on the other side.
- Now, explain that they are going to play the "Jungle Food Game" to
discover which animals eat what foods.
2 Hours
- Invite children to walk around the classroom and match each animal
picture with the picture of the food they think that animal would eat.

 During-reading:
-Show the cover of the fable and divide the children into two groups:
one with animal cards and one with food cards.
-Explain that as you read the story, they should pay attention to
identify when an animal or food is mentioned.
-Start reading the fable and, after mentioning an animal and its food,
pause and ask "Do you eat...?" using the name of the animal and the
 food. For example, Toucan, do you eat meat?
Children must respond with "Yes" or "No" and raise the corresponding
cards.
-Continue reading, repeating the process for each animal.

 Post-reading:
-Organize the children in a circle.
-Place the animal picture cards in one surprise box and the food picture
cards in another box.
-Invite a child to take a card from each box without looking at the
pictures before choosing them.
-The child must take out the cards and then say out loud the name of
the animal and the food they chose, relating them. For example,
"Jaguar - Chocolate".
-The rest of the group must respond, if the relationship is correct, they
must jump forward, but if it is incorrect, they must jump back.
-Continue the game, giving each child the opportunity to choose cards
and match the animals with their foods, until all the correct options are
found.
-Finally, in the same organization, conclude with a brief group
conversation about whether the story taught them the importance of
being honest. This, through yes/no questions.
