Suggestions.
1. What did the inhospitable man see over the way the next morning? Describe the house. What did he do? Tell what he said to his wife. What did she do? Tell what the good people told her. Tell what the proud man said when his wife told him how it happened. What did his wife tell him to do? Tell what the proud man said when he had overtaken the traveler. What did he ask for? Was his request granted? Repeat what was said.
2. What are tiles? Where are they placed on a house? What are they for? Tell the names of the different parts of a house. (Foundation, cellar or basement, first story, etc.) Name as many different kinds of buildings as you can. (Schoolhouses, churches, store buildings, etc.) Tell of large buildings you have seen and what they were used for.
3. Did the good man and woman tell the truth about how they came to have a new house? Did the proud man tell the truth about going for the key? Why did he try to deceive the wonderful traveler? Was he truly sorry that he had been selfish? Whose conduct pleases you? Was the traveler grateful to the poor people? Why do you think he granted the same favor to the unkind man? What did he say when he told the man he might have three wishes granted?
4. Who deceived in “The Seven Little Goats”? In “Red Riding Hood”? In “Death of the Cock”? In “Mother Frost”? How were they all punished?
