The Wind and the Sun

Many years ago, a man was traveling through the forest. Wind and the Sun decided to place a little bet.

Wind smirked, “I bet I can get that man to remove his coat.”

Sun chuckled, “I am much more powerful. I will surely convince him to remove his coat.”

“Watch this,” Wind said. Wind hissed as he blew strong, icy gusts directly at the unsuspecting man. The man tugged at his coat,

desperate to keep warm. Wind became impatient and created

powerful squalls. The man’s eyes began to water at the fierce wind. He clung tighter to his coat as he struggled to keep his feet on the

ground.

“It’s not working,” Wind growled angrily. He puffed harder until he was completely exhausted.

“There’s no use,” Wind said defeatedly. “He will never remove his coat.”

“Watch,” Sun whispered softly, “and learn.” Sun gently peaked out from behind the clouds. Soft rays of sun calmly fell on the man’s shoulders.

“Nothing is happening, Sun,” Wind sneered. “It is impossible!”

“My strategy is working perfectly,” Sun reassured.

Sun concentrated his rays. The man relaxed inside his coat, and in no

time at all, he began to sweat. He slipped off his coat, tossed it over

his shoulder, and smiled up at the sky, “What a relief!”

Sun turned to Wind, “Kindness is more effective than force.” All disagreements between Wind and Sun quickly ended.

struggled to keep his feet on the ground.

Unit 11 – The Storm

11A Introduction

The thunder is loud. The lightning crashes. The rain pours and pours. Little balls of ice even start falling from the sky. You’re on a school bus on your way to school. Are you feeling brave?

11B Song Lyrics

I woke up one morning, yawning,It wasn’t sunny out; no, son, it was pouring.It was a typical day though, just like the others,I hopped on the bus with Dave, my brother.But while we were telling jokes in our seats,We heard thunder and some kids freaked.I wasn’t paying attention, I was distractedBy the comic books that my brother had in his lap.And anyway, a little thunder never ruffled my feathers,Uh-uh, I’m cool with the weather every day. But, yeah, it’s trueThat it had started to thunder, and lightning, too.Now, maybe I should mention; I think it’s important,That I’m kind of short and I’m in kindergarten.Usually I prefer and like it better,When the weather isn’t dry; no, it’s a little wetter.But this storm was severe, intense and harsh, Man, it was not normal at all,Because little balls of ice, we call them hail,Uh-huh, they began to fall as well.And the sound was kind of spooky to us,’Cause we could hear the hail hit off the roof of the bus.Some kids started screaming, and crying, too,This was not your typical ride to school.

Sometimes you got to just step up,Just step up, just step up.(x4)

The Word Up Project: Level Orange


Now the lightning had stopped but the rain still fell,Some kids were still spooked, I was feeling chill.But pretty soon we got into trouble,Because the bus ran through a giant puddle.And some of the water must have splashed up in the engine, The bus stopped, like our trip was ending.The bus driver said, “I’m afraid we’re stuck.”Tried to use his phone, But didn’t get an answer or response.Yep, but then he said, “There’s a gas station about a mile ahead. I don’t walk too well on one leg; I limp, Is there a kid who could go ahead and get help?” All the kids looked at Dave,My brother, who’s the biggest kid in the fifth grade.Yeah, we all waited and looked at Dave,I asked, “Do you feel valiant and brave?”But Dave shook his head and said, “No,I hate to reveal this, and make it known,But I’m too scared to walk all the way alone,I’m scared like Dorothy and Toto.”Now, I knew if no one went, we would be stuck,Sometimes it takes one person to step up.So I did the noble thing that deserves respect,I told the driver that I would go ahead.I walked through the rain for a couple of yards,When I heard Dave’s voice: “Hey, wait up!”I guess you could say I was brave,Walking through the rain, all the way, yeah, just to save the day. You need to be smart, but I’m not scared,“Fear” is so last year…You need to be smart, but I’m not scared,“Fear” is so last year…

Sometimes you got to just step up,Just step up, just step up.(x4)

11H ReadingRead the passage below and then answer the questions that follow.

Strange RainHave you ever read the book Cloudy With a Chance of

Meatballs? The book is about a strange town called Chewandswallow. In Chewandswallow, food and beverages fall from the sky. When it rains, soup falls from the sky. When it hails, the hail is made of meatballs! The town of Chewandswallow is not real, of course. Food cannot fall from the sky. But would you believe that animals can?

In 1995, a woman named Nellie Straw was driving in Scotland when she was caught in a severe storm. Suddenly, hundreds of frogs began landing on her car. She looked around to see where the frogs were coming from. One look up revealed the source of the frogs. They were dropping out of the sky, like rain!

Frogs are not the only animals that fall from the sky. Rains of fish and birds have also been known to happen. In 2007, the town of Jennings, Louisiana, was hit by a rain of worms!

Scientists have an interesting response for why it rains animals. Sometimes during storms, little tornadoes can form. These tornadoes can pick up animals like fish and frogs from lakes. The animals are sucked up into the clouds. After a while, the winds die down and the animals fall from the sky. Most of the time, the animals that rain are still alive!

It is not typical for animals to fall from the sky. Most people live their whole lives without seeing frog rain. However, you never know when it will happen. So the next time it rains, be sure to remember your umbrella…and your helmet!
