Jenny

was

so excited. She had a pack of Starburst in her lunch and she had been looking forward to eating them all morning. Lunch finally came and Jenny sat down to eat her Starbursts when her

friend

Judy

sat next to her.

Let me get the pink ones,

asked

Judy

. Jenny liked the pink ones best, but she thought

Judy

was funny and Jenny wanted

Judy

to like her, so Jenny gave

Judy

all of her pink Starbursts. Before Jenny was done giving

Judy

the pink ones, Carrie sat on the other side of Jenny.

Let me get the red and the orange ones, Jenny. Remember when I gave you that Snickers?

Jenny

did not

remember that, though she did remember when Carrie ate a whole Snickers in front of her, but Jenny thought Carrie was cool, so she gave her the red and the orange Starbursts. Now that she only had the yellow ones, Jenny

was no

t

so excited about eating starbursts anymore.

A group of frogs were traveling through the woods, and two of them

fell into a deep pit. When the other frogs saw how deep the pit

was, they told the two frogs that they were as good as dead. The

two frogs ignored the comments and tried to jump up out of the pit

with all their might. The other frogs kept telling them to stop,

that they were as good as dead. Finally, one of the frogs took

heed to what the other frogs were saying and gave up. He fell down

and died.

The other frog continued to jump as hard as he could. Once again,

the crowd of frogs yelled at him to stop the pain and just die. He jumped even harder and finally made it out. When he got out, the other frogs said, "Did you not hear us?" The frog explained to them that he was deaf. He thought they were encouraging him the entire time.-author unknown

Proverb #1

Slide7

Once there was a mean little boy who lived in a small village. This mean little boy loved to mess with people, so one day he ran up to a sheep herder and shouted,

“WOLF! WOLF! A wolf is attacking the town!” The sheep herder grabbed his staff and ran to defend the town, but realized he had been fooled when the boy started pointing and laughing at him.

Ha ha! I made you jump,

said the boy. Then the boy ran up to a farmer and shouted,

WOLF! WOLF! A wolf is attacking the town!

The farmer grabbed his pitchfork and ran to defend the town, but when the boy started pointing and laughing at him, he realized he had been tricked. As the boy went back to his family’s farm laughing about the funny trick he played, he saw a real wolf in his father’s chicken coop. As the wolf ate all of his father’s chickens, the boy screamed over and over again, “WOLF! WOLF! Please help us!” But nobody came to help him.Proverb #2

Slide8

Angie loved to draw. She made colorful designs of people

’s names with bright hearts & flowers, but she lost own markers, so she borrowed her teacher’s. The school day was ending, but Angie wanted to keep coloring, so she took the teacher

s markers home and lost them in her messy room. She came back to school the next day and wanted to color again, so she asked the teacher for more markers. The teacher replied,

Sure, Angie, but this is my last pack.

Angie said she would be careful, but by the end of the day the markers were scattered all over the floor and the custodian swept them up and disposed of them. When Angie came in the next day, she asked the teacher for more markers, but she was disappointed to find that there

weren

’t any more. “I don’t know where all of my markers went,” said the teacher, “but I don’t have them.” Angie had to draw her pictures with drab pencils.Proverb #3

Slide9

Jenny hated reading class. She

didn’t understand point of view or figurative language, and not knowing how to do the work frustrated her. She asked the teacher for help, but he spoke so fast and used such big words that she still couldn

t understand. The teacher asked if she understood, and she nodded her head, but she

didn

t. Jenny

s friend Katie knew that Jenny was having trouble, and, rather than just giving Jenny all of the answers, Katie explained to Jenny how to solve the problems. Katie spoke clearly and at Jenny

’s level, and Jenny was happy that she finally learned how to do the work. Later in the week, Katie was having trouble in math class. She didn’t understand coordinates and was really frustrated. Seeing that Katie was having problems, Jenny, who understood math very well, taught Katie coordinates. Both girls made honor roll that quarter. Proverb #4

Slide10

Bell-ringer: 12/2/14

Read the short proverb and identify the moral (lesson) of the story. Write

it in your notes.

Once upon a time there was a Miser

(someone who doesn’t like to

spend money) who

used to hide his gold at

the

foot of a tree in his garden; but every week he used to go and dig it up and brag over his wealth. A robber, who had noticed this, went and dug up the gold and ran away with it. When the Miser next came to brag over his treasures, he found nothing but the empty hole. He pulled at his hair, and threw such a fit that all the neighbors came around him, and he told them how he used to come and visit his gold. "Did you ever take any of it out?" asked one of them.”No," said he, "I only came to look at it.""Then come again and look at the hole," said a neighbor; "it will do you just as much good."

Song/question 1: KATY PERRY, “Firework”

Do you ever feel like a plastic bag,

Drifting through the wind

Wanting to start again?

Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin

Like a house of cards,

One blow from caving in?

Do you ever feel already buried deep?

6 feet under screams but no one seems to hear a thing

Do you know that there's still a chance for you'Cause there's a spark in youYou just gotta ignite the light, and let it shineJust own the night like the 4th of July'Cause baby you're a fireworkCome on, show 'em what you're worthMake 'em go "Oh, oh, oh"As you shoot across the sky-y-y

For it won't be long
