In this lesson, students are on the fourth read aloud of the text, Owl Moon by Jane Yolen. The focus of the lesson is a series of text-dependent questions that call attention to the exceptional figurative language and vocabulary in the book. Students participate in paired and whole class discussion. This lesson is a strong example of Core Action 2, especially examining language the author uses. 

This lesson addresses:1.L.4,1.L.5,1.RL.1,1.RL.2,1.RL.4,1.RL.7,1.SL.2
