Day 1 and 2, Grades 5 and 6 English 5 and 6/Q1/W4

GOOD WISHES
The boy always wanted to eat stars.
At night, he would look up at the little areas of the sky, and wish so hard that he could
reach out beyond the trees to pluck the twinkling stars, and put them into his mouth.
He lived in a small village deep in the forest. There was nothing much to do at night,
except look up the stars peering through the many leaves and branches, and wish that he could
reach out beyond the tall trees to pluck the little stars from the sky. He wished so hard and so
long, for so many nights, that he finally made it happen.
One day, a stranger came to the village. He brought a sharp instrument which could cut
trees faster than anything the boy had seen. He promised the people in the village that they would
get what they wanted. They would have all their wishes come true if they allowed him to cut the
trees around them.
At the end of the day, many trees had fallen. There seemed to be so much more of the
sky. When evening came, there were also many more stars to be seen, and the boy looked up and
felt even more strongly that he wanted to taste them in his mouth.
The stranger sensed his wish and approached him. “All you have to do,” said the stranger,
“is say your wish out loud for me to hear, and I will grant it.”
The boy looked up at the stranger with pleading eyes, and said, “I want to eat some
stars.”
The stranger smiled and nodded, he looked up at the sky. “Which ones?” he asked the
boy.
“That one,” the boy pointed out. “And that one, and that one, and those over there.” He
swept his arm in an arc across the night sky.
“Go ahead and reach out for them,” said the stranger. “You may eat as much as you
wish.”
The boy believed him. He reached out towards the stars and caught them in his hand. His
wish had come true. He brought the stars to his mouth and ate them in one gulp. He found their
taste to his liking.
The next day, the stranger cut down more trees. That night, more stars shone in the sky.
The boy believed him. He reached out towards the stars and caught them in his hand. His
wish had come true. He brought the stars to his mouth and ate them in one gulp. He found their
taste to his liking.
The next day, the stranger cut down more trees. That night, more stars shone in the sky.
The boy went up to the stranger and asked if he could eat more stars. The stranger smiled
and nodded and told the boy he could do so each night.
The boy flung his arms up into the sky and caught more stars, and ate them as had been
his wish.
Each day, the stranger cut down more trees. Each night, more stars would shine in new
parts of the sky, and the boy had his fill reaching out and tasting the stars of his choice.
The people in the village were all happy that the stranger seemed to grant their every
wish. They allowed him to cut down as many trees as he wanted, until their view of the sky
became larger and larger.
Soon, there were no more trees to cut. The man said goodbye and went away.
That night, the boy ate all the stars in the sky.
In the days and nights that followed, the people saw how the wishes that had been
granted them soon came to an end. Even the boy was hungering for more stars to eat, but the
entire sky grew dark and not a single star could be seen.
The villagers became restless and most of them were rendered sick. They began to fight
among themselves for many small reasons. In the day, they lamented the loss of their trees, and
at night, they were saddened by the loss of all the stars.
One day, another stranger came. He brought a single tree and told the villagers that they
could have it since they appeared to have lost their forest. They allowed him to plant the tree, and
promised to make it grow, until they had their forest to live in again.
The second stranger also told them that they should stop fighting among themselves. He
said that, so they would remember. Each time they look at the star, they would think of peace,
and that would put a stop to all their fighting.
The boy saw the star placed on top of the tree. He wished that he could reach the star and
take it. He wanted so much to eat it.
The second stranger approached the boy and told him that it was the star of peace. He
explained that it was not meant to be eaten. He said that it was there to remind people at night,
when fears and wishes fought inside them, that peace reigned in the sky and it should also reign
in their lives.
“The stars are like the trees,” said the second stranger to the boy. “Each one reminds us
that we should still the greed in our hearts. Each tree, each star, teaches us the ways of peace.”
The boy looked at the star atop the tree. Tears came to his eyes. He felt so sorry that he
had eaten all the stars in the sky. He began to choke, and felt a fervent wish to give back the stars
so that the trees and the sky would again light up their lives.
The second stranger told the boy to stop crying. “Wish upon the star of peace, and you
will get your wish for all time.”
The boy wished as hard as he could, and soon his mouth tasted the salt of all his past
tears. He saw the faces around him, all wishing for more trees and more stars so they could
regain their happy lives in peace.
Stars stumbled out of the boy’s mouth. All the stars he ever ate twinkled back to life.
Some flew to the single tree and attached themselves to its many branches. The tree glittered in
splendor, and the villagers all fell to their knees and marveled.
The stars kept coming out of the boy’s mouth. They soared in all directions up to the
night sky, and took their places until everything again seemed familiar.
The boy was filled with joy at the sight of so many stars, that he hadn’t realized how
much he had wished to satisfy his hunger. But now that they were all back in the sky, he was
grateful that the second stranger had given them all a second chance to regain their happy lives.
In the days and nights that followed, the single tree grew and bore fruit amid its many
glittering stars. The stars flew out of the tree to scatter the fruits all around before they, too, took
their rightful places in the sky.
The fruits grew into trees and more trees, until the villagers regained the happy forest of
their lives. At night, they saw less of the many stars in the sky, but they had their trees, and they
knew the stars would remain where they were meant to be.
The boy grew up to be a man, only too happy to see but a few stars. The sight of one was
enough to remind him to still the hunger in his heart. As a man, he remembered that peace came
only to boys and girls, and men and women, of good wishes.

FORMAL AND INFORMAL ENGLISH USAGE

We use formal language in situations that are serious or that involve people we don’t know well.
Informal language is more commonly used in situations that are more relaxed and involve people
we know well.

Formal language is more common when we write; informal language is more common when we
speak. However, there are times where writing can be very informal, for example, when writing
postcards or letters to friends, emails or text messages. There are also examples where spoken
English can be very formal, for example, in a speech or a lecture. Most uses of English are
neutral; that is, they are neither formal nor informal.

Formal language and informal language are associated with particular choices of grammar and
vocabulary.

Contractions, relative clauses without a relative pronoun and ellipsis are more common in
informal language.

Compare
She has decided to accept the job. formal
She’s decided to accept the job. informal: She’s = contraction
Compare

The girl I met in Brunei was interested in working informal: relative clause without the relative

Day 1, Grade 6 English 6/Q1/W4

DISCUSSION ON SIMILE, METAPHOR, TONE, MOOD AND PURPOSES OF THE


AUTHOR

SIMILE

Simile is stated comparisons of two unlike objects having something in common. It uses the
words like and as in comparing

Examples of simile:
1. He walks as quiet as a mouse.
2.  The soldier was brave as a lion.
3.  Our District Supervisor is as busy as a bee.
4.  Her nose is as cold as ice.
5.  Your weight is as light as a feather.

METAPHOR

Metaphor makes a direct comparison of two unlike things that have something in common. It
does not use the words like and as.

Example:
1. The sun is a ball of fire.
2. Her brother was a tower of strength during those hard times.
3. The dictionary is the bankbook that guides us in the use of words and their meanings.

Mood is defined as the feelings or emotions that are evoked in the reader by the selection/poem.
Conversely, tone expresses the attitude the author has towards the subject or topic of the
selection/poem.

Inferring the speaker’s tone, mood or purpose may be done by determining the purpose of the
author in writing the poem or selection. It may be done through keen observation on the way the
speaker’s read the lines and through analyzing of the words used in the poem or selection.

like to eat and play. Mother fish was afraid Baby Fish might die so she allowed him to go. Baby
Fish was very happy, but his mother was very sad. Baby Fish swam and swam. Soon he became
hungry. He saw one live shrimp. He caught the shrimp and was about to swallow it when he felt
a tug in his mouth. He tightened his bite on the shrimp. But he felt himself pulled upward and

MODAL VERBS

MODALS are special verbs which behave very irregularly in English. They are verbs used with
other verbs.

Here's a list of the modal verbs in English:

can could may might will

would must shall should ought to

Modals are different from normal verbs:


1: They don't use an 's' for the third person singular.
2: They make questions by inversion ('she can go' becomes 'can she go?').
3: They are followed directly by the infinitive of another verb (without 'to').

Probability:

First, they can be used when we want to say how sure we are that something happened / is
happening / will happen. We often call these 'modals of deduction' or 'speculation' or 'certainty'
or 'probability'.

For example:

 It's snowing, so it must be very cold outside.


 I don't know where John is. He could have missed the train.
 This bill can't be right. £200 for two cups of coffee!

Ability

We use 'can' and 'could' to talk about a skill or ability.

For example:

 She can speak six languages.


 My grandfather could play golf very well.
 I can't drive.

Obligation and Advice

We can use verbs such as 'must' or 'should' to say when something is necessary or unnecessary,
or to give advice.

For example:

 Children must do their homework.


 We have to wear a uniform at work.
 You should stop smoking.

Permission

We can use verbs such as 'can', 'could' and 'may' to ask for and give permission. We also use
modal verbs to say something is not allowed.
For example:

 Could I leave early today, please?


 You may not use the car tonight.
 Can we swim in the lake?

Habits

We can use 'will' and 'would' to talk about habits or things we usually do, or did in the past.

For example:

 When I lived in Italy, we would often eat in the restaurant next to my flat.
 John will always be late!

Past modals

The past modals are 'could have + past participle', 'should have + past participle' and 'would have
+ past participle'.

TENSES OF VERBS

In English, there are three basic tenses: present, past, and future. Each has a perfect form,
indicating completed action; each has a progressive form, indicating ongoing action; and each
has a perfect progressive form, indicating ongoing action that will be completed at some definite
time. Here is a list of examples of these tenses and their definitions:

Perfect Progressive
Simple Forms Progressive Forms Perfect Forms
Forms
Present take/s am/is/are taking have/has taken have/has been taking
Past took was/were taking had taken had been taking
Future will/shall take will be taking will have taken will have been taking

Simple Forms

only now. It can also represent a widespread truth.

Past Tense

Past tense expresses an action or situation that was started and finished in the past. Most past

memorized.

Example Form

Future Tense

Future tense expresses an action or situation that will occur in the future. This tense is formed by
using will/shall with the simple form of the verb.

The future tense can also be expressed by using am, is, or are with going to.

Progressive Forms

Present Progressive Tense


Present progressive tense describes an ongoing action that is happening at the same time the
statement is written. This tense is formed by using am/is/are with the verb form ending in -ing.

streets.

Future Progressive Tense

Future progressive tense describes an ongoing or continuous action that will take place in the
future. This tense is formed by using will be or shall be with the verb form ending in -ing.

Dr. Jones will be presenting ongoing research on sexist language next week.

Perfect Forms

Present Perfect Tense

Present perfect tense describes an action that happened at an indefinite time in the past or that
began in the past and continues in the present. This tense is formed by using has/have with the
past participle of the verb. Most past participles end in -ed. Irregular verbs have special past
participles that must be memorized.

Example Meaning

GRACE’S CANOE TRIP


The bright sun gazes down on Grace and her family as they canoe through the calm,
crystal clear waters of Gray Lake. The paddles, looking tired and worn out from their
long day, slowly push the water back, causing them to drift forward with each stroke. The
huge Arkansas sun bakes their skin like cookies in an oven. Grace’s mind is an ocean of
places she would rather be when she notices a splashing sound in the distance. Suddenly,
Grace and her family stumble upon an immense waterfall. Grace wonders if Niagara Falls
could possibly be as beautiful as this waterfall. With a sudden burst of energy, Grace
paddles at the speed of light. She is on cloud nine as she approaches the waterfall that
must stretch upwards for a hundred miles.
