Workplan Analogies Routine Attendance/ 5s routine/2-minute break IXL Diagnostic Discussion Analogy Processing Drill Wrap up Moodle/IXL/LITPRO ATTENDANCE Have your 5s and 2-minute break Flash Fiction Analogies and Relationships What is an Analogy? An Analogy is a comparison between two things. It’s typically used for the purpose of explanation in trying to illustrate a point. - There is a relationship between the two objects in an analogy. - Something that makes them comparable or similar. (maybe an aspect, an idea, a quality) Distinguishing relationships If BURNING is to FREEZING - Then HOT is to _______? If Pillow is to SOFT - Then Stone is to ______? Distinguishing relationships If BURNING is to FREEZING - Then HOT is to _COLD_ If Pillow is to SOFT - Then Stone is to _HARD_ Distinguishing relationships If ICE CREAM is to BRAIN FREEZE - Then STUDYING is to _______? If IF BOW is to LONG-RANGED WEAPON - Then SWORD is to ______? Distinguishing relationships If ICE CREAM is to BRAIN FREEZE - Then STUDYING is to LEARNING If IF BOW is to LONG-RANGED WEAPON - Then SWORD is to SHORT-RANGED WEAPON So, ask yourself How did you decide the relationships for the examples you just did? Relationships and Analogies Relationships can be different for each analogy. The concepts can be a direct, indirect, concrete, or an abstract relationship, depending on what kind of analogy it is. Read carefully to determine the relationship for each analogy you encounter. Your job is to figure out “what the compared relationship is” Different kinds of Analogy Opposite Analogy Crying and laughing are the example of opposite analogies as these two words are opposite in terms of meaning. Object and Classification Analogy Objects can be classified in a one group, and the same object can also be classified in another group. - For example: knife can be a weapon, knife can be kitchenware depending on what the set relationship is. Different kinds of Analogy Object and Related Object Analogy Plant & Seed is the example of object and related object analogies. Both are related to each other. (Imagine Nintendo switch & Joycons!) Cause and Effect Analogy Fire & Burn or Read & Learn are the examples of Cause and Effect analogies, where two things are related with each other in terms of cause and effect. - One is the cause and the other one is the consequences of the cause. Different kinds of Analogy Degrees of a Characteristic Analogy This comprises adjectives in increasing/decreasing degree, but not for all cases. For example, Tired & Exhausted, Cold & Freezing. Object and Group Analogy Where several objects together make a group is known as Object and Group Analogy. For example, Trees & Forest. Sheep & Herd Different kinds of Analogy Problem and Solution Analogy Each problem has a solution. This analogy focus on a problem and it relates a solution to it: For example, Tired & Sleep. Effort and Result Analogy Paint & Painting, Write & Letter are the example of the Effort and Result Analogy where one word represents the effort and the other one is the result. Different kinds of Analogy Object and Function Analogy Keyboard & to type is an example of Object and Function Analogy, where one word is object and another one is the related function. scissors & cut. needle & sew Performer and action Analogy In this analogy, both the performer and action are mentioned. For example, painter & paint. ballerina & dance Why it’s important Understanding analogies and relationships with objects is important to Reading Comprehension - It helps the author convey a message in a different manner - You’re able to make connections that are concrete or abstract which helps you understand better. Remember! - The relationship between analogies aren’t always the same. - You must identify what the relationship is for each analogy. - Maybe it’s the physical relationship, an abstract concept, or something to do with the word itself Let’s try it! Choose the correct analogy based on the relationship provided. ruler : measure : : scissors : ________ sew cut knit Let’s try it! Choose the correct analogy based on the relationship provided. ruler : measure : : scissors : __cut__ sew cut knit Let’s try it! Choose the correct analogy based on the relationship provided. hand : glove : : foot : ________ toe sock boot Let’s try it! Choose the correct analogy based on the relationship provided. hand : glove : : foot : __sock___ toe sock boot Let’s try it! Choose the correct analogy based on the relationship provided. wheel : car : : branch : ________ leaf flower tree Let’s try it! Choose the correct analogy based on the relationship provided. wheel : car : : branch : __tree___ leaf flower tree Recap! - The relationship between analogies aren’t always the same. - It can be a physical relationship, related by an abstract concept, or it may have something to do with the word itself. - The first set usually sets the context of the analogy for what you are comparing. Independent practice Choose the word for the correct analogy in each sentence based on the context of the relationship provided. Choose the word for the correct analogy in each sentence based on the context of the relationship provided. 1. large : big 2. bear : den shout : __________ cry : scream : bat : __________ hive : nest : cave anxious 3. musician : instrument singer : __________ flute : voice : choir 4. hot : cold 5. goose : flock sweet : __________ tasteless : sour : bees : __________ swarm : school : sweeter group Choose the word for the correct analogy in each sentence based on the context of the relationship provided. 1. large : big 2. bear : den shout : ___scream____ cry : scream : bat : ___cave___ hive : nest : anxious cave 3. musician : instrument singer : __voice___ flute : voice : choir 4. hot : cold 5. goose : flock sweet : __sour___ tasteless : sour : sweeter bees : ___swarm____ swarm : school : group Workplan Analogies Routine Attendance/ 5s routine/2-minute break Flash Fiction Discussion Analogy Processing Drill Wrap up Moodle/IXL/LITPRO
