WIDA The English Language Development Standards WIDA Performance Definitions Chrysanthemum can be used to emphasize the uniqueness and differences of every individual. Whether the differences are due to name, culture, race, gender, etc., Chrysanthemum is a useful tool to help teach children how everyone should be accepted, regardless of how he or she may be different from them. Chrysanthemum can also be utilized to reinforce the subject of bullying, how it should not be tolerated, and how everyone needs to treat each other with respect. Finally, Chrysanthemum can be used in order to help teach students about character analysis and the author's purpose. www.isbe.net/common_core/default.htm www.wida.us Chrysanthemum Story Telling Project Listening and Reading Grade: Primary (2nd grade) Genre: Fiction picture book Book: Henkes, Kevin.

CHRYSANTHEMUM

Transcript: - MAJOR POINT #1 - Henkes, Kevin. Chrysanthemum. Illus. Kevin Henkes. New York: Greenwillow Books, 1991. - Summary - - THESIS - - major point #3 - - major point # 2 - - MORAL CRITICISM - Chrysanthemum tells the story of a young mouse who faces difficulty being accepted by others her own age. When she was born, her parents had named her Chrysanthemum, the perfect name for their perfect daughter. As she grew older, Chrysanthemum began to love her name and everything about it. She thought her name was perfect and especially loved how it looked and sounded. This changed on her first day of school. Through its portrayal of a character who lacks self-determination, Henkes' Chrysanthemum undermines its initial intention to teach children important moral lessons. Chrysanthemum's classmates began to tease her about how long her name was and claimed that it had no significant meaning. It was only when the students were introduced to Mrs. Delphinium Twinkle, the music teacher, that they started to accept Chrysanthemum's unique name. Similarly, Mrs. Twinkle was named after a flower and struggled to fit her name on a name tag. She expressed her fondness of the name and helped the other children recognize its beauty. "School is no place for me,” said Chrysanthemum. “They said I even look like a flower. They pretended to pick me and smell me.” (Henkes 3) The work influences readers to base their own opinion off of others instead of thinking for themselves. The "lesson of accepting yourself regardless of what others think" is ignored in this context (Armstrong 1). The work promotes bad behavior by having the main character continue the bullying she encountered herself.

"Chrysanthemum wilted. She did not think her name was absolutely perfect. She thought it was absolutely dreadful. The rest of the day was not much better." (Henkes 2) “I just cannot believe your name,” Victoria said as the students lined up to go home. "Neither can I," thought Chrysanthemum miserably. (Henkes 3) CHRYSANTHEMUM - works cited - By Kevin Henkes "Chrysanthemum thought it was wildly funny, and she giggled throughout the entire Dance of the Flowers" (Henkes 5). Moral critics examine works of literature based on its moral lessons or ethical teachings. The moral value of the work is accepted or rejected based upon the critic's own moral code or belief system. - major point # 2 - “My name is Delphinium. Delphinium Twinkle. And if my baby is a girl, I’m considering Chrysanthemum as a name. I think it’s absolutely perfect.” (Henkes 4) - MAJOR POINT # 3 - - Summary - The work discourages readers from standing up for themselves and solving their own problem.

Chrysanthemum

Transcript: What happened? Who is the main character? Kevin Henkes writes and illustrates children's books. Our story started when Chrysanthemum was born. In the beginning, the story takes place at her house. Most of the story takes place during Chrysanthemum's first week of school at school in her class. Answer: Plot Her name is long, barely fits on her name tag, and is the name of a flower Mrs. Twinkle because she shows kindness to Chrysanthemum. Mrs. Twinkle teaches us that bullying is not okay. What happened? Vocab quiz: The answer to the question "What happened" tells us the ____ of a story. Who are the characters? Chrysanthemum loved her name. Her parents thought it was absolutely perfect. Then, Chrysanthemum went to her first day of school, and she was teased for her name by Victoria, Rita, and Joe because they thought it was funny to have the same name as a flower. Chrysanthemum didn't love her name anymore. She didn't like school, even though her teacher, Mrs. Chudd, was nice. On the third day of school, Mrs. Twinkle, the music teacher made Chrysanthemum the daisy in the class musical, which made the teasing worse! Who is the author? What made Chrysanthemum different? Who should we act like in our story? Can you think of another "Who" question? are the characters? happened? did the story take place? did the story take place? did it happen? Chrysanthemum was teased because she was different. Mrs. Twinkle showed the other students that Chrysanthemum's name was not strange, but something to be proud of because her name is also a flower's name. When and Where did the story take place? Important Questions: The Five W's Take away message: Everyone is different, but deserves to be treated with kindness! Who What Where When Why Laughing when someone answers a question wrong Pushing a friend for missing a shot on the soccer field Whispering jokes about someone to others Treating others the way you like to be treated Then, Mrs. Twinkle told the students her first name was Delphinium, which is also a type of flower. Mrs. Twinkle said she might name her daughter Chrysanthemum. After that, Chrysanthemum thought her name was absolutely perfect! Victoria, Rita, and Joe stopped teasing Chrysanthemum--now they wished they were named after flowers. Mom & Dad Chrysanthemum Victoria Rita Joe Mrs. Chudd Mrs. Twinkle Why did it happen? Is this kindness? Chrysanthemum
