You may wish to point out that ladybugs are beneficial insects that eat other tiny insect pests that harm plants. For this reason, gardeners are usually happy to see ladybugs in their gardens. Tell students that they will read a poem that is similar to an old-fashioned nursery rhyme about a ladybug. Invite volunteers to recite the verse if it is familiar, or share the following version with students: Ladybug, ladybug/Fly away home./Your house is on fire/And your children all gone./All except one,/And that’s little Ann./She has crept under the warming pan. Compare Real and Imaginary Ladybugs Review the traditional rhyme with children and use prompts to help elicit information about elements of the poem that could really happen and those that are imaginary: Could a ladybug really fly home? Do ladybugs really live in houses?, etc. While You Read the Poem Encourage students to listen closely for the poet’s message to the ladybug in this modern version of the poem. Then invite students to follow along as you read the poem aloud. After You Read the Poem Elements of Poetry Poet’s Toolbox: Innovation Explain to students that sometimes authors create new works that are based upon existing ones. In this case, John Himmelman uses a traditional rhyme for a springboard to a new, fun poem about ladybugs. A new poem made this way is called an innovation. Poet’s Toolbox: Personification Ask children to consider whether the actions described could actually be carried out by ladybugs. Elicit from students the idea that the author is attributing human characteristics to the ladybugs in the poem. This is called personification. You may wish to brainstorm other examples of familiar stories where animals or other nonhuman characters have human characteristics and behaviors, such as Goldilocks and the Three Bears, The Little Engine That Could, and others. Follow-up Activities Students may work independently to complete the activities on pages 8 and 9. 6 Beasts, Birds, & Bugs Read and Understand Poetry • EMC 3323 • ©2005 by Evan-Moor Corp.
