Berg Patience is key in eliciting Esenwein & Marietta Stockard for the South Texas Christian Schools Speech predictions. Record students' Meet 2011-2012.

Explain can go back to their predictions how the stars form the shape of a dipper. Photos of tin dipper may also be shown after reading the parts of the for comparison. This is to have students imagine the events in the story where story. the main character used a dipper all throughout the story. The Legend of the Dipper A kind act is often its own reward There had been no rain in the land for a very long time. It was so hot and dry that the land was parched and brown and even the big, strong trees were dying. The water dried up in the creeks and the fountains stopped bubbling. Make Predictions: ▪ What could the people feel in this kind of setting? What makes you say that? ▪ What do you think would be the problem of the main character who is a little girl? 3 All the people and creatures were so thirsty! Everyone felt weak. There was one little girl whose mother grew very ill. “I must have a drink of clear cold water,” cried the mother, as she lay in bed, so weak and suffering from thirst. Make Predictions: ▪ What do you think the little girl will do? Why do you think so? The little girl took her tin dipper and began her search for water in the dark night. By and by she found a tiny little spring up on a mountainside. It was almost dry. The water dropped, dropped, ever so slowly from under the rock. The girl held her dipper carefully and caught the drops. She waited a long time until the dipper was full of water. Then she started down the mountain holding the dipper carefully, for she didn’t want to spill a single drop. Make Predictions: ▪ What made it difficult for the little girl to get water? ▪ Do you think she will have an easy time on her way back home? What do you think will happen next? On the way she passed a poor little dog who had been following her. The dog was panting for breath and was so thirsty. The little girl looked at her dipper then poured some water into her hand and held it down for the little dog. He lapped it up quickly and felt so refreshed. The little girl didn’t notice—but her tin dipper had changed into a silver dipper and was just as full of water as it had been before. Make Predictions: ▪ What do you think the little girl will do? Why do you think so? ▪ Why do you think the tin dipper turned into silver? 4 The little girl started on again, hurrying very fast, for she remembered how much her mother needed her, but she had not gone very far when she met a stranger in the road. He was tall and his eyes looked down with a wonderful smile into the little girl’s face. He begged for a drink of the clear, cold water. Make Predictions: ▪ What do you think the little girl will do? Why do you think so? ▪ What will happen next? The little girl thought that her mother told her to always be kind to strangers, so she held the water up to the stranger. Suddenly, as the stranger drank, the silver dipper was changed into gold – full to the brim with sparkling water. Make Predictions: ▪ What do you think the silver dipper turned into gold? ▪ What will happen next? The little girl hurried along as fast as she could go. She was so tired and thirsty but she would never take a drink herself. Her mother needs all the water that was left. She finally arrived home and then came the greatest wonder of all! Make Predictions: ▪ What do you think will happen next? ▪ What will happen next? The little girl held the gold dipper to her mother’s lip and as the mother drank, she became well and strong once more. And the gold dipper was changed to a diamond dipper – shining and glittering with gems. Make Predictions: ▪ Something magical will happen next. What do you think will happen next? 5  The diamond dipper left the little girl’s fingers to shine up in the sky. It shines every night to remind all little children that there was this little girl who was brave, kind, and unselfish. -end- Ask more comprehension questions after reading the whole story. ▪ What makes the girl brave? ▪ What makes the little girl kind and unselfish? ▪ Which part of the story do you like best?
