  4. Listening Comprehension • Genre - mystery • center around a problem that the main character has to solve • challenge the reader to think along with the main character to find the solution • This mystery is about a famous violin. • You should listen to this mystery for the enjoyment of it. • Purpose: To find out how the main character uses clues to solve a mystery about a violin. • Good readers vary their pace to fit the action of the story and read aloud with appropriate phrasing by pausing between groups of words that go together.

  5. Violins are made from wood. A tree detective can analyze the wood the violin is made from. Why was a tree detective needed to solve this mystery? The grain of a piece of wood is the pattern of lines in the wood. Why might the tree rings be different in tow trees that lived at the same time but in different areas? The weather would be different in the two areas, so the trees’ grain patterns would be different.

  6. What clues did Dr. Henri use to solve the violin mystery? • He compared the violin’s rings to those of trees from the same region and time period. • How are fingerprints like tree rings? • Each person’s fingerprints are distinctive, as are the ring patterns of trees from a certain place and time. • This week’s story is about two friends who solve mysteries.
