Creative QuestionmediumSinging Animal Sound Songs

During a visit to a farm, Lina saw several animals. She saw a cow grazing in a field and a hen clucking near a coop. She also heard a small squeaking sound coming from a hidden spot.

a · KnowledgeWhat sound does a cow make?1

A cow says 'Moo, moo, moo'.

b · ComprehensionWhy might Lina hear a clucking sound near a coop?2

Lina might hear a clucking sound near a coop because a hen says 'Cluck, cluck, cluck', and hens are typically found near coops.

c · ApplicationBased on the sounds learned, what animal could be making the 'squeak, squeak, squeak' sound Lina heard?3

Based on the sounds learned in the 'Animal Sounds' song, the animal making the 'squeak, squeak, squeak' sound Lina heard could be a mouse, as the song states, 'The mouse says squeak, Squeak, squeak, squeak'.

d · Higher-order skillsIf Lina wanted to create a short play about farm animals, which animals from the 'Animal Sounds' lesson could she include, and what sounds would they make? Justify your choices.4

For a farm animal play, Lina could include a cow (making 'Moo, moo, moo' sound), a hen (making 'Cluck, cluck, cluck' sound), and a duck (making 'Quack, quack, quack' sound). She could also include a dog (making 'Woof, woof, woof' sound) or a cat (making 'Meow, meow, meow' sound) as common farm animals. These choices are justified because the 'Animal Sounds' song clearly assigns these specific sounds to these animals, which are commonly found on or near farms.
