Three Names Past/Present Chart

Three Names Past/Present Chart

Three Names is a great way to introduce your student to the concept of past and present.  After you read the book (or after multiple readings of the book), ask your student to think of some of the things in the book that seem different than what he is accustomed to (objects that were used a long time ago that aren't quite as common today or that have been replaced by a present day invention).  After your discussion, use the pre-made table and clip-art pieces to make a past/present chart based on Three Names.   You can allow your student to cut, sort, and paste the items on to the table.

Teacher's Note:  Some of the "past" items are still used today, but not as readily as the modern item (i.e. clothesline vs. clothes dryer; woodstove vs. furnace, etc.)
