He is a realistic person and an intelligent person too, because he relates the magpie and the other birds with his own life. He’s very sentimental and caring. He’s not angry, because he tells it not with aggressive words. 3.5 Focus on form 1. It sounds negative and threatening. 2. A sharp … t/m in June (line 4 & 5) Line 14 & 15

Line 19 & 20
3. - I woke when a magpie hammered, its machine-gun voice. (Line 1 & 2). Het is als een machine geweer. It’s a metaphor. - From close range into my ear as if in the same room (Line 2 & 3). Het lijkt alsof het in dezelfde kamer is. It’s a simile. - The sky, a whole smooth eggshell (Line 5 & 6). De lucht als een eggshell (vertaling niet te vinden) It’s a metaphor. 4. It’s all with a ‘b’. It sounds nice. 3.6 You and the text Ellen: 1. The magpie was smashing a sparrow’s nest above the window, pick-axing trough the downed, just-feathering young. It’s not hot to image, and a like the way of the nature. However also that it is the way of a human-being. 2. It’s machine-gun voice from close range into my ear as if on the same room. 3. Abstract. You can illustrate it very well because he’s a human-being. However also figurative because of the machine-gun voice. 4. One was lifted fifty yards away to a bough and banged and broken and gulped. Anne: 1. ‘I woke when a magpie hammered’ That’s my favourite line because I often wake up of the noise that the birds make. 2. Line 7 t/m 12. The magpie was smashing a sparrow’s nest, above the window, pick-axing through. To the downed, just-feathering young. Ten days hatched, they were spiked. Out of their lined, close world by a black Bill and an implacable eye. 3. Figurative because you can see that the magpie is smashing at a sparrow nest. 4. Line 19 t/m 24. And how it seems to live in another medium, unseen, unknown, outside. Till the great beak smashes in. Knowing it is no benefit. I hear the black-white-black flap of that magpie come chattering back for the next grab. 4. ‘The Rat’ and ‘The Twa Corbies’ 4.0 Instant reactions Ellen: Title Association Reaction +/- ‘The Rat’ ‘The Twa Corbies’ Disgusting animal

cool - + 4.1 Check your predictions See table 4.2 Answer the questions on ‘The Rat’ 1. We think that the rat is the I-figure, because he is saying in the last paragraph that he’ll pick one of her cheek-bones. And rats are sneakily just like that sentence. 2. See at 1. 3. The rat. 4. The I-figure and that is the rat is left at home, that is what we are thinking. I’ll pick at one of her cheek-bones, that’s sounds very angry. 4.3 Compare picture and poem -

Poem Scottish 4.6 Interview a classmate - 4.7 Creative group work a. – b. ‘The Rat’ This poem is very strange. It’s very difficult to find out who the I-figure is and who is left a home. We have read this poem more than three times, certainly. And yet it is still too difficult to figure who is the I-figure and who is left at home. It’s about someone how is spying a family, we don’t know what kind of family it is, I can be just humans, but also animals, maybe a rat? It happens all in a house. Finally we think that the I-figure is a rat, who is spying a humanly family and they are doing things and the rat is explaining that. We don’t know why this poem is written, it’s a stupid poem. We would like to hear the opinion of the readers. 5. ‘The Horse Whisperer’ 5.0 Experience Anne: 1. I have heard of home apathy, and paranormal healing. 2.

5.1 Read and find out 1. It refers to a man in Montana, he is the Horse Whisperer. His name is Tom Booker. 2. I think that’s the Horse Whisperer, Tom Booker. That’s why the book named as The Horse Whisperer; he would heal the troubled horse. That is the story about. 3. It is setting in Montana. We know it because they are saying in the text: “Here, under the massive Montana sky, all their lives are changed forever. 5.2 Read and decide Ellen: I think I would read this book, because I have already seen the movie, and it was a beautiful story, and most people say that the book is more exciting. Anne: I think I wouldn’t read it because, I don’t like that sort of books. I prefer more exciting stories instead of those soft stories with much romance. 5.3 Write down your opinion on the characters -Tom is Patient: Line 93: Tom now slowly moved one hand to the horse’s neck. Line 84: Tom just stood there and let him. -Tom is Thought-reading

Line 63: Then he took two or three more steps toward Tom. Line 83: And once he’d sniffed the rope, he started sniffing Tom’s hand. 5.4 Think of a motto Tom’s motto: Take it easy, you must be patient. And love who you like.
