Where the Mountain Meets the Moon - Text Evidence

Copy Activity*

Activity Overview

Provide students with a question or prompt to answer on a storyboard using textual evidence.

The example prompt below is:

“What challenges does Minli face and how does she overcome them?”

Possible answers to the prompt include:

Dragon had been tied with vines by the monkeys. Minli works hard to cut the vines.

Minli and Dragon must get by the monkeys. She outsmarts the greedy monkeys by cooking them rice and sneaking by them while they are caught in the net.

Minli can only ask the Old Man of the Moon one question. She asks Dragon's question instead of her own.

Other prompts might include, “How do the characters influence Minli?” and “How does Minli change throughout the text?”
