The Tree

• Who is climbing the tree? Why?
• Why is there a tree in the ocean?
• How do you know that it’s an ocean?
• Will the person ever be able to get down?
• Who is on the boat in the distance?
• Write a poem titled ‘The Tree’, using only ‘-ing’ words, or make each line begin with an ‘-ing’ word. Here’s an example: The Tree. What is ‘doing’ each of the verbs? Try acting out the scene, with sound effects.
