PHASE I Starter	Teacher narrates the story “The Golden Axe’, with the help of a video clipping.                        Once up on a time there lived a wood cutter  named Ramu. One day while he was pursuing his work beside a river , his axe accidently fell in to the river. He was very disappointed and started crying.                       Suddenly there appeared a   goddess from the river . She enquired the reason for his sorrow . He replied, “I lost my axe in the river”.                       On hearing this the goddess vanished  and then suddenly appeared with a golden axe.             On showing this to Rama , he continued crying saying that it was not his axe. The goddess again vanished and appeared with a silver axe. But still Ramu refused to take the silver axe. Then finally the goddess appeared with Ramu’s axe. Ramu  happily  received  his axe  from the goddess. The goddess was pleased with his honesty and as a reward handed over the gold and silver axes to him.
