  1. What’s in a Name? By Joy Agre 5 T

  2. What’s in a Name?Reading 5 Soprano Luisa Tetrazzini enjoyed dining on a casserole of chicken and pasta in a cream sauce. She loved the dish so much that it was named after her: “Chicken Tetrazzini.” Dame Nellie Melba, another soprano, loved the thin toasted bread made by master chef Auguste Escoffier. He named these wafers “Melba toast” for her.

  3. What’s in a Name?Question 5 If you could create a dish for a musician, what dish would you create? For whom would you create it?

  4. What’s in a Name?Teacher’s Page Students should first read to themselves then together as a class aloud. Brainstorm and give examples of possible answers to questions together as a class. Then have individuals answer independently. Maybe have a contest to see whose “dish” or “ice cream flavor” or “instrument” is the class favorite. Incorporate social studies by holding a secret ballot vote for each category. As an extension see if the students could really create anything they named and bring it to show the class.
