Unit: Nursery Rhymes by Andrew Lang
Notes
- every two lines rhyme
- the rhymes are usually the last words in the sentences
- Each story has multiple nursery rhymes in it.
- Story idea: make nursery rhymes that tell a story
- make multiple rhymes in one story that all end up incorporating one another and the stories all connect
- all of the nursery rhymes are different lengths
- many of them have a man as either narrator or the main character
- some have animals as the main character (The Lion and the Unicorn)
- rhymes are about something important, but minimized (either children dying, people gathering food in order to eat, saving a life, etc.)
- animals + people in the rhymes (incorporate the two different lives together)
- Mother Goose
- The stories are also different types of nursery rhymes (i.e. Tales, Proverbs, Songs etc.)
- Incorporate a song into your story
