Chato's Kitchen!
One of my favorite children's books is Chato's Kitchen. It's a great use of social language and Spanglish as well as a great book to refresh our knowledge of figurative language (metaphors, simile, connotative language).
Learning Targets:
* Share Chato's Kitchen with a person at home and find 3 pieces of figurative language.
* Visualize and share your favorite metaphor or simile from Chato's Kitchen with someone at home; why is it your favorite? What did you visualize?
* Determine the meaning of words and phrases as they are used in a Chato's Kitchen,
* Analyze the impact of a specific word choice on meaning and tone
Chato's Kitchen Read A Loud
Reviewing Figurative Language
During Unit 2, when we read Flush; we worked on simile, metaphor and connotative language (the feelings or emotions behind certain language).
After you've viewed the video, work on a short review of figurative language.
