Plop! Eeeek! Aaeee!ItalicsWhat was that?But not for the crawly things Mama Bird brought.I’m not upside down, you are!You slept at night?Stellaluna could see.ConnectionsHave you ever had a friend that was allowed to do something that you or your family thought was bad? Has an adult ever told you not to do something because it was bad, but they did it? Why do you think that happens?Text to world – Do immigrants have the same experience and questions as Stellaluna when they begin life in a new country?InferringMother bird told Stellaluna that she was teaching her children to do bad things. Were they bad things? Why did mother bird call them bad things? Does that make Stellaluna bad because she did them? At the end of the book, Flitter asks, “How can we be so different and feel so much alike?” and Pip says, “And how can we feel so different and be so much alike?” What do you think?Asking Questions and/or wonderingI wonder what would have happened to Pip, Flap, or Flutter if they would have been separated from their family and lived with Stellaluna instead. Would they have been able to survive with bats? What animals do you think could live in another animal’s habitat and survive?How do bats see in the dark? (They don’t see with their eyes, they use echolocation) ................
