Each poem and play comes with a page of questions after it. Pages 1 to 4 are two poems; pages 5 to 8 are two plays to read aloud in parts, one reader for each character and one for the narrator.
Read each poem aloud together and clap on the rhyming words. For the plays, hand out parts and read twice: once to learn the words, then again in each character's voice, using the directions in ( ).
Read a play together, each taking parts, and try a line in a happy, a sleepy and an angry voice.
Two poems of our own and two short plays to read aloud in parts: The Little Red Hen and The Lion and the Mouse. Students find rhyme, repeated lines and words that start with the same sound, and decide how each character would say a line.
