and consider each characters words,actions,thoughts,and effect on others.For example,I know the fox and the crow are the characters on page 6.The fox is hungry and decides to trick the crow into dropping her piece of cheese.He says,“I bet you sing as beautifully as you fly.”Saying these words tricked the crow into opening her mouth to sing,and she dropped her food into the foxs mouth.By looking at the foxs words,actions,and thoughts,I can tell he is crafty and sneaky.I also know that he caused the crow to lose her piece of cheese.Stopping to analyze the fox will help me better understand the moral of the story.Fillinthefour-columnchartontheboardwiththefoxswords,thoughts,actions,andeffect on others.Have students work with a partner to discuss what these traits tell about the
