A Retelling of Aesop's Fable Lexia Reading Core5 GRADE 2 | Comprehension LEXIA LESSONS Compare/Contrast Stories (Supplemental) Description Supplemental Lexia Lessons can be used for whole class, small group or individualized instruction to extend learning and enhance student skill development. This lesson is designed to help students identify likenesses and differences between two similar stories from different cultures. Students learn that folktales and fables are old stories that have been retold many times, and often change in the retelling. Comparing and contrasting two versions of the same story can sensitize students to variations in storytelling and also help them begin to appreciate that big ideas in literature are universal. Teacher Tips Students are introduced to each text in this lesson by following along as you read it aloud. Preview the texts to determine if your students are likely to be able to read them to you instead, with some support. Preparation/Materials • Copies of the two stories “The Milkmaid and Her Pail” and “The Daydream” (for display and for each student) • Copies of the compare-contrast graphic organizer (for display and for each student) CCSS: RL.2.9 Direct Instruction Today we’ll be reading stories that are very old. They were passed down over time from storyteller to storyteller before they were written down. The two stories come from different parts of the world, but you’ll see that they are alike in many ways. Display the first story, the fable “The Milkmaid and Her Pail.” Have students read aloud the title and subtitle. Encourage students to tell what they know of Aesop’s fables. They may be familiar with “The Tortoise and the Hare,” and “The Ant and the Grasshopper,” for example. A fable is a short story that teaches a lesson. A man named Aesop was a storyteller who was famous for his fables. Aesop lived in ancient Greece more than 2,500 years ago, so these fables are very, very old. Read the story aloud while students follow along. After reading, ask questions to draw attention to the central message, key details, and story structure. Questions to ask: Reread the first paragraph. One detail in that paragraph is that the milkmaid has “a large pail of milk balanced on her head.” Why is that important to the story? (It’s important to know that because she moves her head at the end, and the pail falls down.) What does the milkmaid imagine as she carries the pail of milk? Use time-order words like first, next, and then to tell about her thoughts. (She imagines what she’ll do with the milk. First, she’ll make cream from it. Next, she’ll make butter. Then she’ll sell the butter and buy eggs. After that, the eggs will hatch into chickens. Next, the chickens will lay more eggs that become chickens. After that, she’ll sell chickens and buy a beautiful dress. Then she’ll go to the fair in her dress and act as if she doesn’t care to know the young men who think she’s so lovely. At last, she’ll toss her This material is a component of Lexia Reading® www. lexialearning.com www. This material is a component of Lexia Reading® © 2015 Lexia Learning Systems LLC head to show how proud she is.) Script page 1 Lexia Reading Core5 GRADE 2 | Comprehension LEXIA LESSONS Compare/Contrast Stories (Supplemental) Read the statement of the moral at the end of the story. (“Do not count your chickens before they are hatched.”) What does that mean for the milkmaid? (She shouldn’t imagine getting money by selling chickens because she doesn’t have any chickens yet.) If someone says to you, “Don’t count your chickens before they are hatched,” what do you think that saying means? (Just because you hope something will happen doesn’t mean that it will happen. It’s better to take one step at a time than to be thinking of the last step. Don’t count on a plan working out, because something might go wrong.) Display the second story, the folktale, “The Daydream.” We’ve just read a very old story about a milkmaid whose plans did not work out as she hoped. Now we’ll read another very old story about someone who makes a plan. Have students read aloud the title and subtitle. Ask students to tell how a daydream is different from the kind of dream people have when sleeping. Then have students use their own words to explain what “a retelling of a tale from India” means. Read the story aloud while students follow along. After reading, ask questions to draw attention to the central message, key details, and story structure and to get students thinking about similarities and differences with the previously read fable. Questions to ask: CCSS: RL.2.9 Reread the first two paragraphs of “The Daydream.” What details there remind you of what happens in “The Milkmaid and Her Pail”? (The worker carries a basket with pots of oil balanced on his head. Like the milkmaid, he's doing a job and balancing something on his head.) What does the worker daydream about as he carries the pots of oil? Use time-order words like first, next, and then to tell about his thoughts. (He imagines what he’ll do with the copper coins he gets as payment. First, he’ll use one coin to buy food. He’ll use the other to buy chickens. Then he’ll sell the eggs that the chickens lay. After that, he’ll buy goats. After the goats make more goats, he’ll sell some and buy cows. Next, he’ll sell the calves that are born to the cows. After that, he’ll use that money to buy land. Next, he’ll get married and have children. Then, one evening, his children will tell him to wash his hands for dinner. Then, he’ll shake his head to tell them no.) Reread the first sentence of the last paragraph. (The merchant was laughing too hard to be angry anymore.) Why is the merchant laughing? (The worker’s story made him laugh because it was so silly. The worker was acting as if he really did lose all the things that he never had.) Are the endings of “The Milkmaid and Her Pail” and “The Daydream” alike or different? (Some students may note that the endings are alike, because in both stories the characters move their heads and drop the items that were going to lead to riches. Some students may note that the endings are different, because “The Daydream” tells what happens after the items fall; the worker tells a funny story that saves him from having to pay the merchant back for the lost oil.) Guided Practice Distribute copies of both texts, along with copies of the compare-contrast graphic organizer. Now that we’ve read the two stories, we can sum up our ideas about how they are alike and different. We’ll write notes in this chart to show our ideas. Let’s start by writing the title of each text above the left and right sections. This material is a component of Lexia Reading® www. lexialearning.com www. This material is a component of Lexia Reading® © 2015 Lexia Learning Systems LLC Script page 2 Lexia Reading Core5 GRADE 2 | Comprehension LEXIA LESSONS Compare/Contrast Stories (Supplemental) Model filling in the chart with the text titles. Have students write the titles in their own charts. Prompt students to reread in order to compare and contrast the texts. Ask for ideas in complete sentences, and show how to write key words and phrases as notes for students to copy. Suggested prompts follow. We’ve read two stories that are alike in many ways. What are both stories mainly about? (Characters make big plans that don’t work out.) What events are alike in both stories? (Characters carry things on their heads. They imagine how the thing they’re carrying will lead them to what they want. They get so caught up in their dreaming that they forget about what’s on their heads. They end up moving their heads and dropping the thing.) Can you think of other things we should write in the “Both” section? Discuss students’ ideas and reasoning, and add any details that accurately describe both tales. Now let’s look at the section for “The Milkmaid and Her Pail.” What are some things that are only in this story? (Sample responses: The main character is a milkmaid. She is carrying a pot of milk. She imagines how to turn milk into a beautiful dress. Her dream is to be able to show off in front of young men. The lesson is stated at the end.) What should we write in the section for “The Daydream?" (Sample responses: The main character is a worker in India. He is carrying pots of oil. He imagines how to turn one copper coin into a happy life with land and a family. He thinks he really has lost all those things. Another CCSS: RL.2.9 character, a merchant, is also in the story.) Independent Application Display this prompt, and read it aloud with students: Think about the main characters in “The Milkmaid and Her Pail” and “The Daydream.” • What is one important way that both characters are alike? • Use details from both stories to support your idea. • Use complete sentences in your answer to the question. Encourage students to use their own words to tell what they are being asked to do. Tell them to refer to the chart they just filled out, along with the two stories, to answer the question.

    A Group Photograph with Beba the Cow, happening on December 7, 2003, Zagreb. CHEESE AND CREAM An Initiative to Protect the Milkmaids of Zagreb (Since 2002) A Project by Kristina Leko in collaboration with BLOK Actions, Events, Research, Archives, Website, Exhibition, Roundtable, Campaign www.sirivrhnje.org (also www.cheeseandcream.org) While working on the project On Milk and People, I became familiar with many issues important to farming families. I learned a lot on issues related to agricultural policy, the dairy industry, and economical restructuring. I became deeply aware of social changes that would result from the process of accommodating the European Union regulations in Croatia and, respectively, in my hometown of Zagreb. As I understood that one of the consequences would be the disappearance of the milkmaids in the Zagreb open markets, I decided to start an initiative that would help the milkmaids of Zagreb survive, as they are a paradigmatic part of Croatian social reality. Is it possible to join the European leveling of economic standards in a way that preserves important elements of local cultural identity? In 2002, in collaboration with the not-for-profit organization BLOK, we began our initiative aiming to protect the milkmaids of Zagreb as a cultural heritage. Since the summer of 2002 we organized several happenings, undertook research on the condition of the milkmaids, presented their situation in an exhibition and launched a small media campaign. In order to test and affect the public opinion a website was created. In order to influence the administrative and political decision making, ten officials from different institutions were invited and participated in a round table entitled «Could Zagreb Milkmaids possibly join the EU?».

These polite dairies were functional spaces in which aristocratic women engaged, to varying degrees, in bucolic tasks of skimming milk, churning and molding butter, and preparing crèmes. As dairy work became a mode of genteel activity, dairies were constructed and renovated in the stylish architectural modes of the day and expanded to serve as spaces of leisure and recreation.

  • Milk Spoilage: Methods and Practices of Detecting Milk Quality

Email: *[email protected] Received March 28th, 2013; revised April 28th, 2013; accepted May 5th, 2013 Copyright © 2013 Michael Lu et al. This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. ABSTRACT Milk spoilage is an indefinite term and difficult to measure with accuracy. This uncertainty can cause suffering for both milk manufacturers and consumers. Consumers who have been misled by ambiguous expiration dates on milk cartons waste resources by disposing of unspoiled milk or experience discomfort from drinking spoiled milk. Consumers are often unwilling to purchase products close to their inaccurate expiration dates. This consumer behavior has a negative financial impact on milk producers. Inaccurate milk spoilage detection methods also force milk producers to use overly conservative expiration dates in an effort to avoid the legal and economic consequences of consumers experiencing ill- ness from drinking spoiled milk. Over the last decade, new methods have been researched with the purpose of develop- ing more accurate and efficient means of detecting milk spoilage. These methods include indicators based on pH bacte- ria counts and gas-sensor arrays.

In 2014, the U.S. exported a record of US$ 608.1 million in consumer oriented products, which was an increase of percent from 2013. As the country has limited agricultural resources, raw materials for the food processing industry are largely imported too. The limited local food manufacturers are incapable of meeting demands for both the domestic and re-export markets. Due to demographic and lifestyle changes, the sector is expected to grow and emerging trends have been taking place in the market such as increasing demand for healthier and convenience products.
