Cassie Austin 2 3 Pinocchio Name Search Simple Machines Some of the words and names used in My Son Pinocchio have become scrambled in the ocean: Stromboli, Geppetto, Pinocchio, Blue Fairy, puppet, whale, donkey, toys, and strings . Can you find them? (Words may be written forward, backward, Pinocchio’s limbs act together to form simple machines or levers, and you use your arm as a lever all the time. A first-class lever must have three parts or properties to function: It must have 1) Effort (the muscle in your arm), 2) a Load (whatever you’re holding or moving), and a Fulcrum (your elbow joint). One way to remember how a simple lever works is to think that there is some magic at to it, as an E.L.F. (Effort, Load, Fulcrum) might provide. vertically, horizontally, or diagonally. Solution on page 10.) There are levers being used everywhere. Does your seat in the theatre fold? All of the costumes in Pinocchio were made with scissors, which are levers. And on the playground, a teetertotter is probably the best example of a lever at work. Can you see other levers at work around you? 4 5 Design Your Own Puppet If you could design your own puppet, what would it look like? Would it be tall, or short? Would it have long arms or short? Use the space below to sketch or draw a design for your puppet. AND WHAT ELSE? If you were able to wave a magic wand and have your puppet suddenly come to life, there would probably be a lot of questions (not to mention explaining to adults how this happened–LOL). Here are a few things you might want to consider. Use the blanks to fill out your answers. What would its first words be? ___________________________________________ What would its favorite food be? ___________________________________________ Are there foods your puppet doesn’t like? ___________________________________________ What would its name be? ___________________________________________ What would it like to do for fun? ___________________________________________ What book would be its favorite? ___________________________________________ Does your puppet attend school? If so, where? ___________________________________________ Does your puppet have a favorite game to play? ___________________________________________ This is certainly not a test. Be creative with your answers. Remember, this is your puppet! 6 7 How Long, How High? Ways to measure things are right at your fingertips! Do you know how tall you are? Not in feet and inches, but in hands? Yes, you can use your hand as a unit of measurement. Spread your fingers all the way out, then use the distance between the tip of your thumb and the tip of your pinky finger to measure almost anything. So how many “hands” tall are you? Don’t stop there. How many pinky fingers wide is your shoe? How many fists is the distance between your knee and the floor? (This works really well because you can use two fists at the same time!) If you have to move a chair from a room, will it fit through the door? Check it with the “hands” measure. In your classroom, choose a friend (let’s say Emma for instance), and ask her to stand in as a unit of measurement. How many Emmas long is the classroom? How many Emmas wide is it? How many square Emmas is the room? With a piece of string to measure Emma’s height (we don’t want her standing on the furniture or anything), use it to determine how many Emmas high the celing is. 8 Things we can learn from My Son Pinocchio Pinocchio is a great story, full of all kinds of lessons about honesty, growing up, and accepting responsibility. Here are a few... Can you spot them during the show? • Tell the truth. Pinocchio’s nose grows every time he tells a fib. Kids might not know it, but parents are very good at spotting a “nose that keeps growing.” • Be careful what you wish for. Geppetto asked that Pinocchio become the son he’d always wanted. He had no idea just how much mischief little boys (and girls) can get into. • Being real means doing things for others. Once Pinocchio starts to settle down and attend to Geppetto’s needs, he becomes a real boy. Becoming a real person means that you put other people’s concerns before your own. • Stay focused. Pinocchio wanted badly to become a real boy, but he was easily distracted and was constantly getting into trouble. Are there times when you have lost track of what your job or chore was, being distracted by a video game, the TV, or another person?
