Practice Lesson Vocabulary: True or False The blues has its roots in slavery. A barber sings for a living. Released means something was stolen. A teenager attends either middle or high school.

Vocabulary Strategy (P. 348) Context Clues: Antonyms An antonym is a word that has the opposite meaning of another word. For example, cold is an antonym for hot. An author may put an antonym near a difficult word to help you discover what it means. Read the words and sentences around the unfamiliar word. Look for antonyms that show contrast with the unfamiliar word. When things are contrasted, words such as unlike, not, but, or on the other hand may signal the contrast. Give the unfamiliar word the opposite meaning of the antonym. Does this meaning make sense in the sentence? As you read “Out of Great Pain, Great Music,” check the words and sentences around any unfamiliar word. See if an antonym helps you figure out its meaning.

Genre: Expository Nonfiction Expository nonfiction explains what certain things are and how they came to be. As you read, notice how the author explains a musical form known as the blues and how it came to be.

How did Mahalia Jackson use the blues in a new and different way?

Preview and Predict Preview the selection title and illustrations and discuss the topics or ideas you think the selection will cover. Use your lesson vocabulary words as you discuss what you expect to learn.

Guided Comprehension: What is the main idea on p. 352, paragraph 2? What detail supports the main idea? The roots of blues go back to slavery. What is an antonym for slavery? How has what you’ve read helped you understand why blues music was important to slaves? “Her father worked on the docks during the day…” Is this a statement of fact or a statement of opinion? How do you know? Find the main idea and a supporting detail on p. 355. Mahalia Jackson’s singing career was inspired by her musical idol, Bessie Smith. Do you have an idol that inspires you to do something you love? Why do you think the author wrote, “ She could hold a note until you thought she should run out of breath…”? How could completing a main idea and details chart help you better understand the selection?

Fact and Opinion Statements of fact can be proved true or false. Opinions are statements of someone’s ideas, feelings, or way of thinking about something. Find a statement of fact and a statement of opinion on p. 355, paragraph 2.

Persuasive Devices: Authors use persuasive devices, also known as propaganda, to persuade people to be for or against someone or something. It is an extreme form of biased writing. Some types of persuasive devices are bandwagon, testimonial, and loaded words. It is up to the reader to decide whether or not he or she agrees or disagrees with an author’s ideas. Point out the author’s use of persuasive devices on p. 352 when he describes the blues. Write a persuasive paragraph about the type of music they like best and why.
