The Strongest One

The third graders in Room 107 and 108 took turns performing “The Strongest One” for each other. In this Zuni play, Little Red Ant asks each character if they are the strongest one of all. In the end he learns that everything is stronger than something else and even though ants are small, in some ways they are the strongest of all. The Zuni’s are one of the people of the Southwest who live in pueblos. Click the picture to see the story book.
