THE RAINBOW GOBLINS<br />
by Ul De Rico<br />
(Give after Lesson 140.)<br />
BEFORE READING/SET PURPOSES<br />
Display the cover of the book and read the title. Identify the author/illustrator. Talk about<br />
what students see in the illustration. Ask them what goblins are. Ask if goblins are real or<br />
fantasy creatures.<br />
Take a picture walk through several spreads. Ask: Where does the story take place?<br />
When do you see a rainbow? What do you want to find out about the rainbow goblins?<br />
During Reading<br />
Why do the Goblins want the Rainbow? (They eat the different colors.)<br />
What is their plan? (They will go to the Valley and eat the Rainbow.)<br />
How do the Rainbow Goblins catch rainbows? (They use rope lassoes, and the rainbows<br />
disappear.)<br />
How does the Earth spoil their plan? (The roots hear the plan, and the flowers take the colors<br />
of the Rainbow.)<br />
AFTER READING/RETURN TO PURPOSES<br />
Why do you think the Earth helped the Rainbow? (Possible answer: The Rainbow is beautiful;<br />
the Earth didn’t want the goblins to eat all of the rainbows.)<br />
Where did the birds, butterflies, and dragonflies come from? (The Rainbow rewarded the<br />
flowers for their help by turning them into birds, butterflies, and dragonflies.)<br />
What do you think the author meant when he wrote the last sentence in the story?<br />
(Possible answer: Because of the goblins, the Rainbow needs to be more careful.)<br />
