IV. INSTRUCTION
A. ENGAGEMENT (Motivational Activities):
Today, I will read a new book, Oogna Boogna, by Frieda Wishinsky and illustrated by Carol
Thompson. But first I will like to go over the front of the book, the back of the book, and the spine.
Then I will go over the seven vocabulary words I found very interesting in the book. (List of seven
words: lullaby, wails, sobs, jig, unison, faded, and scampered. Vocabulary words are defined by the
teacher while the students repeat the new vocabulary word.)
Why do you think I choice these seven vocabulary words? (Students respond to the question in a
complete sentence.) As you hear the story, listen for the vocabulary words, listen for the names of
important people or things, and what happens in the story. Oogna Boogna by Frieda Wishinsky and
illustrated by Carol Thompson is read. Which vocabulary words did you hear? Who is baby
Louise? Who is Daniel? Who else is in the story? Why is baby Louise crying? Who makes baby
Louise stop crying? What else can you tell us about the story?
