After reading chapter 14 of the story Bud, Not Buddy by Christopher Paul Curtis, scholars take part in a read-aloud of the poem If by Rudyard Kipling and compare it to the reading of Bud, Not Buddy. Learners then go deeper into the poem by analyzing its first stanza and recording what they notice and wonder in a graphic organizer. To conclude the instructional activity, pupils bring it back to Bud, Not Buddy, with a written exit ticket.
