Morning Review Comprehension Reading Quizzes TCAP Coach Limelight
Test Slide 5 Essential Questions What are analogies and why are
they used? Slide 6 The Lesson Today we will complete three
activities with analogies including: 1. Review synonyms and
antonyms using response cards and dry erase boards. 2. Play the
game Kick Me. 3. Group Choice Writing Activity: 1. Create a page
for a Class Analogy Book in which the group creates and illustrates
an analogy. 2. Write and illustrate a situation analogy. 3. Compose
an analogy poem. Slide 7 Hook BrainPop

important part of learning vocabulary. Most standardized tests,
including the TCAP, SAT, and ACT, use analogies to test vocabulary.
Slide 9 You may discover new ways to use things (e.g., using a
broomstick as a pretend horse) and make broader comparisons between
things. This can help expand your creativity. Real World Slide 10
Do you like solving crossword puzzles? Some newspapers combine the
two. Figuring out analogies is a fun form of entertainment. Slide
11 Real World Many writers use analogies in their essays to explain
relationships. For example: Growing up is like learning to ride a
bike. When you are very young you must have a lot of help from your
parents, just like a beginning bike rider needs training wheels.

same relationship. Slide 30 Slide 31 Slide 32 Slide 33 Open is to
closed as near is to ______. The pairs of words in this analogy are
__________. (synonyms, antonyms) far antonyms Slide 34 Tired is to

[word 1] : [word 2] : : [word 3] : [word 4] In this analogy format,
: reads "is to" and : : reads "as" This means that sour : vinegary
: : sweet : syrupy sour is to vinegary as sweet is to syrupy Slide
37 You are the teacher. Pretend you are the teacher. Turn to your
partner and ask a question about this part of the lesson. Slide 38
Kick Me Instructions The kick me activity is based on the prank of
placing a note on someones back that says, kick me. A word will be
placed on each of your backs. Slide 39 You will be given a list of
analogies with one missing word. (Notice that the words used to
form the analogies come from your vocabulary words in all subjects
including: reading, math, science, and social studies.) You must
analyze the relationship of the first pair of words, and then find
the missing word on a classmates back. Even if you know a word that
will make sense in the analogy, you must find the exact word on a
classmates back before writing it on your sheet. Kick Me
Instructions Slide 40 You may work individually or in pairs;
however, you must find a partner quickly because you will have a
time limit of 10 minutes to complete this activity. Read the first
rule of Kick Me. Absolutely no kicking. Slide 41 Slide 42 Mercury :

Slide 45 Activity 3 - Groups In a moment you will work in groups of
four to create your own analogy. Groups will be given three choices
of activities. When you reach your group you must set group goals
by: 1. Voting on the activity you wish to complete. 2. Assigning
activity parts to each person in the group. (Note, this is not
group roles, but who will complete each task.) Slide 46 Activity 3
- Groups Remember your Group Roles Leader (Gets the group started
on assignments.) Reporter (Reports to the class.) Recorder (Writes
down information.) Timekeeper (Reminds members of the time.) Slide
47 Choice 1 Creative Thinking Create a Page for a Class Analogy
Book The group leader will ask the group to decide if the group
wants the word pairs to be synonyms or antonyms. The recorder must
write down the analogy for the group to refer to during this
activity. Each member of the group will complete one page. You will
share these with the class when finished. The reporter will
organize how the group will share their analogy. The timekeeper
will make sure the assignment is completed within the 15 minute
time limit. up down frown smile Slide 48 Good Examples many
mountain valley magic feline cat few enchanted Slide 49 Use your
pinch card to show which analogy is better. go world earth
inspector teacher professor car detective Slide 50 Choice 2
Practical Thinking Write and illustrate a situation analogy. Create
your analogy, using "like" to connect the two situations. Example
After taking that test, I feel like a prisoner strapped into an
electric chair waiting for the pardon to arrive. Be specific about
the similarities between the situations or things. Slide 51 Group
Roles The group leader will ask for ideas from the other group
members of situations they have experienced that caused strong
feelings. The recorder must write down the best ideas. The leader
will organize a vote to determine which situation the group wants
to use for the finished product. The reporter will bring the idea
to the teacher to type the sentence. If time allows, group members
will find clipart to illustrate the analogy. The timekeeper will
make sure the assignment is completed within the 15 minute time
limit. Slide 52 Good Examples 1. Writing the research paper was
like sky diving from Grandfather Mountain. 2. Traveling on the
school bus to Abingdon was like riding on a sailboat during a
hurricane. Slide 53 Use your pinch card to show which analogy is
better. 1. The cautious student was slowly going through the work
like a toddler taking his first steps. 2. What goes up must come
down like the stock market. Slide 54 Choice 3 Creative Thinking
Write an analogy poem. An Analogy Poem Ill is to sick as shiny is
to glitter. Occupation is to job as cold is to bitter. Slide 55
Choice 3 Creative Thinking Good Examples In is to out as up is to
down. Large is to huge as city is town. Laugh is to cry as smile is
to frown. Left is to right as hat is to crown. Slide 56 Group Roles
The group leader will encourage each group member to create one
verse (containing at least 2 lines) for a group poem. The recorder
will bring the completed verses to be typed. The reporter will
organize how the poem will be shared with the class. The timekeeper
will make sure the assignment is completed within the 15 minute
time limit. (Note, if time allows you may illustrate the poem.)
Slide 57 Use your pinch card to show which analogy poem is better.
1. My Analogy Poem Black is to white as tic is to tack. Up is to
down as front is to back. 2. The Right Analogy Poem Dirty is to
filthy as day is to night. Brother is to sister as left is to
right. Yes is to no as dark is to light. Wrong to right as peace is
to fight. Slide 58 You will have 15 minutes to complete this
activity. Slide 59 Homework Create four analogies to share with the
class. Write one analogy using vocabulary words from each subject.
Reading and English Math Science Social Studies Slide 60 Quiz Slide
61 1 Slide 62 2. You may have seen a talking parrot on a TV show,
in a movie, or even in someones home. The parrot has learned to
copy sounds that people make. Birds are not the only animals that
can copy the noises they hear. Dolphins, bats, and some apes also
mimic sounds. Now we can add elephants to this list of copycats.
Slide 63 3 Slide 64 4 Slide 65 5 Winter at the North Pole Winter at
the North Pole is cold and dark. This part of Earth is tilted away
from the sun during the winter, so it doesnt get much sunlight. In
October, the last edge of rays from the sun disappears below the
horizon. Then the area is left in full darkness until springtime.
Slide 66 6 There are many times Id like to go buy new books, but I
dont have a lot of money to spend on them. Wouldnt it be great to
swap books right here in our community? Volunteers will organize
the donated books. Then the books will be displayed on tables at
the community center. Everyone will be able to browse and hopefully
nd the perfect book. Students and adults will be allowed to choose
up to two books during each day of the swap. Our plan is to have
the book swap the rst Saturday of every month. Slide 67 SPI
