  5. Baobab Tree

  6. . • These trees may be the oldest life forms on the African and Australian continents. Baobab trees flower for the first time at about 20 years of age. It is thought that baobabs live up to 2,000 - 6,000 years. In mid-summer, dozens of luminous white blossoms—the size of saucers—open at sunset. Their strong musky odor attracts fruit bats and hosts of insects. The baobab’s branches, with their hollows, dents and bloated stems, provide shelter and home for a great many animals. The Boab has been a bounteous tree to the Aboriginal people. Almost every part of the tree is used in one way or another. The seed pods have a woody casing with a velvety covering that is scraped off to create artwork on the pod. The seed kernels are eaten raw or roasted, and are a highly nutritious food source. Leaves and roots are used for medicinal purposes, primarily gastric and chest complaints. The bark is used to make string, rope and twine, and the gum of the tree can be used as glue.

  7. Baobab Tree

  8. 2A • Using evidence from the text (that is, both what the pilot and the Little Prince say), identify at least three attributes of baobabs. Next, name one “baobab” in your life and compare and contrast your baobab with the baobabs in the book.

  9. 2B • In 4-6 sentences, describe the setting of the Little Prince’s home planet. In other words, what is it like and who lives there? Support your description with evidence from the text.

  10. #3 Journal Response • ENTRY TASK: In your response journal, answer the following: • Last week we read about the Little Prince’s travels to several other planets (pp.27-47). Choose one of the planets the Little Prince visited and describe a person you know who is like the inhabitant of that planet. Explain the person’s behavior and personality and compare it to the character you choose. Be specific in your details and include an anecdote in your response.

  11. #4 Journal Entry (pgs. 48-56) • What can you infer about the snake that the Little Prince encounters in the desert? For example, might the snake be a symbol? Use at least two pieces of evidence from the text to support your answer. • (See below for help answering this question) • I infer that the snake is ______________________. The text says, “_________________________________________.” • This shows that the snake is _____________ because ________________________________________. • The text also says ______________________________, which further suggests that the snake is ____________________ because _____________________________.

  12. #5 Journal Entry (pgs. 56-64) • According to the fox, what does it mean to be tamed? Use evidence from the text to support your answer. • Have you ever tamed anyone or have you been “tamed” in the way that the fox explains? Write 5-10 sentences to explain your experience. • Put the fox’s “secret” into your own words: “One sees clearly only with the heart. Anything essential is invisible to the eyes” (63). Next, tell about a real-lifecircumstance or situation in which the fox’s secret is true.
