About this worksheet
The Lion and the Mouse becomes a movie plan in this 3-page 1st grade retelling sheet. Students read the short fable, then answer three planning questions: who the characters are, what the big problem is, and what the lesson is. The main task is a six-panel storyboard, from the mouse running over the sleeping lion to the two becoming friends, with a caption under each drawing. It works toward Common Core RL.1.2. There is no answer key, so check the captions against the fable.
