1 Bell Ringer Quote day: First, put the quote in your own words. Second, explai Death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies inside us while we live. -Norman Cousins
2 The Boy Who Cried Wolf
3 What is a Fable? Fables are stories intended to teach a lesson, and animals often speak and act like human beings. LRA 3.1
4 Elements to Remember ANIMALS are usually the main characters The plot and characters are SIMPLE Stories teach a MORAL or LESSON SETTING is common and nonspecific Author uses PERSONIFICATION LRA 3.1
5 Examples The Grasshopper and the Ants(Bug s Life) The Tortoise and the Hare The Boy Who Cried Wolf
6 Author s Purpose These stories were brief, and told to adults for entertainment. These stories were passed down from generation to generation. They provide a common thread through different generations and sometimes even different cultures. RC 2.2
7 How have fables changed since we were little? When we were little, fables were meant to tell us stories and just entertain us. Maybe they were there to teach us a lesson, like The Tortoise and the Hare. NOW fables are used more as social commentaries. Review: what is a social commentary again? Where have we seen this in class so far? Predict: Why do you think an author would use a fable to open their book? Why would they use this to make a social commentary?
8 Today s objective We will be reading a fable that is at the very beginning of a book named Silent Spring. Before we begin, I want to go over some quick keys to annotating though because I noticed a strong correlation between the kids who scored HIGH on the test and those who annotated their text. I want you to use this annotation key as we read A Fable for Tomorrow in class. Our objective: I can analyze how an author uses rhetoric to form a social commentary within a fable. I can cite evidence to support my claims.
9 Why annotate? How many times have you had to read something more than once to comprehend it? How many times have you found yourself reading the same line over and over again because you were thinking of something else rather than concentrating on what you were reading? Annotating texts is a great solution to those common problems!
10 Annotation slows down the reader in order to deepen understanding.
11 NOTE: Annotation is not just highlighting. This is probably the most common misconception regarding the annotation process.
12 Annotation Key SYMBOL PURPOSE Underline the major points. O Circle keywords or phrases that are confusing or unknown to you.? Use a question mark (?) for questions that you have during the reading. Be sure to write your question.! Use an exclamation mark (!) for things that surprise you, and briefly note what it was that caught your attention. Draw an arrow ( ) when you make a connection to something inside the text, or to an idea or experience outside the text. Briefly note your connections. EX Mark EX when the author provides an example. 1, 2, 3 Numerate arguments, important ideas, or key details and write words or phrases that restate them.
13 Snap Read: A Fable for As we read, I want you to use the key I handed out to annotate. Tomorrow We will pause and discuss twice! After we finish, I will be asking you some questions based on the text. When I snap, you
14 Make a prediction Take 1 minute and turn/talk to your neighbor about what you just read. Talk about what changed in the text. Make a prediction: What could this be making a social commentary on? Why do you think that?
15 DDT (pesticide) a synthetic organic compound used as an insecticide. DDT tends to persist in the environment and become concentrated in animals at the head of the food chain. Its use is now banned in many countries. It became INFAMOUS for it s effects on the Basically, DDT stays in wherever it is put. There were claims that it was killing animals in addition to insects and that it was causing cancer. Now it is banned in the U.S.
16 Knowing about DDT now What social commentary is being made? How is she making it? WHY begin a book that will be largely informational with a fable? What did this accomplish?
