practice book.
You will listen to two poems about the fall season.
Remember that poems may have rhythm and rhyme and poems create feelings and pictures in listeners’ minds.

One purpose for listening is to picture what the
poet has written about through descriptive words.

We need a volunteer to read aloud the first paragraph.
The word “something” in the fourth sentence is confusing
because the author doesn’t say what it is. Read ahead for an
answer. The next sentence has the answer: something refers to
the strange cloud.
We need a volunteer to read the second paragraph. Raise your hand when the reader comes to something that isn’t
explained.
What should we do to try to understand this?
We should read ahead. We need another volunteer to read P. 3.
