Heat Wave!


1. KNOWLEDGE - Many scenes in the story exaggerate an ordinary event until it becomes amazing. Give examples.

2. ANALYZING - What qualities make the girl so good at fighting the heat wave? Use details from the story.

3. GENERATING - If the farm had been out of lettuce seeds, how else could the girl have defeated the heat wave?

4. INTEGRATING - How is the heat wave like a character in the story? If the heat wave could talk, what would it say?

5. EVALUATING - Should the girl have told her neighbors why they had such an early snowfall? Why or why not?

6. CONNECTIONS - What do you think would happen if the stranger from Chris VAl Allsburg's story were at the farm during the heat wave attack?

  1. 5. The girl should not tell her neighbors because she might get in trouble. Then they would make her fix it all most likely.

  2. 1. In case you're wondering how lettuce could cool the air it wasn't just any kind of lettuce it was ice brug lettuce.
