  3. Develop Concepts Why do people enjoy proverbs like “The early bird gets the worm?” Why do older people tell proverbs to younger people, generation after generation?

  4. Read Aloud “Cliché” A cliché is what we all say when we’re to lazy to find another way And so we say Warm as toast, Quiet as a mouse, Slow as molasses, Quick as a wink.

  5. Think. Is toast the warmest thing you know? Think again, it might not be so. Think again: it might even be snow! Soft as lamb’s wool, fleecy snow, a lacy shawl of new-fallen snow. Listen to that mouse go scuttling and clawing, nibbling and pawing. A mouse can speak if only a squeak.

  6. Is a mouse the quietest thing you know? Think again, it might not be so. Think again: it might be a shadow. Quiet as a shadow, quiet as growing grass, quiet as a pillow, or a looking glass. Slow as molasses, quick as a wink. Before you say so, take time to think.

  7. Comprehension Questions -What is a cliché? -Why do you think the poet wrote about clichés? -What does the poet include in the poem to help you think about clichés? -What is the poet’s opinion about clichés? -Do you agree or disagree with that opinion?

  8. Narrative Elements- Conflict & Resolution -Conflict is a problem in a story -Resolution is fixing a problem . . . . Remember: there is more than one way to fix a problem! -For example: In “The Talent Show,” Beany was going to perform in the talent show with Carol Ann, but she did not want to. This is a conflict or problem. Beany decided to perform by herself. This is resolution because it fixes the problem.

  9. Make and Confirm Predictions A prediction is a thoughtful guess about what will happen next in the story. Good readers use story clues and what they know to make predictions. They then read on to see if their predictions are correct.
