Sat on a tuffet
Eating her curds and whey;
Along came a spider
That sat down beside her
And frightened Miss Muffet away.

Reflection

text?
O Did each question require the
answers came from the text?
O Can you think of other TDQ’s?
ConnectionsThe text of Malala Yousafzai’s speech at the United Nations
In the name of God, The Most Beneficent, The Most Merciful.
Honourable UN Secretary General Mr Ban Ki-moon,
Respected President General Assembly Vuk Jeremic
Honourable UN envoy for Global education Mr Gordon Brown,
Respected elders and my dear brothers and sisters;
Today, it is an honour for me to be speaking again after a long time.
Being here with such honourable people is a great moment in my life.
I don't know where to begin my speech. I don't know what
people would be expecting me to say…
Extensions
O Now that you know some background information of the poem, return again to the idea of author’s purpose. Can a nursery rhyme influence thinking? Can a political cartoon? Song?
O Rewrite the text from the first person pov of one of the characters.
O Select an historical figure that stood up to intimidation…
As we look at student work…
O Did students cite
several pieces of textual evidence (7th)
strong and through textual evidence (9th)
to support analysis of what the text says explicitly,
as well as inferences drawn from the text?
If not, what are the implications for instructional
revision and reteaching?
