Comprehension A analogies

The analogies track begins in lesson 21 and continues through lesson 60. There are several objectives of the analogies track:

Apply the information students have learned about same (same position, material, colour, location).
Teach the traditional format of an analogy.
Prompt the student to complete analogies with a variety of responses.

The first format introduces the word analogy and presents the tests for constructing an analogy.

The process is:

The rule for the analogy is presented. (The analogy will tell how animals move).
The animals used in the analogy are named (a hawk and a whale).
Teachers show students how to construct the first part of the analogy by naming the first animal and indicating how it moves (a hawk is to flying).
Teachers show students how to construct the second part of the analogy by naming the other animal and indicating how it moves (a whale is to swimming).
Students say the entire analogy.
