The Gold Coin
We read "The Gold Coin" in Reading which is about a woman who has a gold coin that a thief would like to steal. The thief's life is changed by the woman's warmth and compassion. Before we read the story we discussed material riches and nonmaterial riches. The students had to draw a picture of something they considered valuable. Then, we sorted them into material and nonmaterial. Here were some of their responses!
Material: ring, necklace, chicken leg, American girl doll, computer, X Box, hamburger, guitar, house
Nonmaterial: friends, dog, peace, mom, dad, family, best friend, aunt, cousin
Nonmaterial: friends, dog, peace, mom, dad, family, best friend, aunt, cousin
