83. Compare and Contrast
When you compare and contrast, you tell how two or more things are alike or different.
Sometimes authors use similes and metaphors to make comparisons.
Similes use the clue words like, as, or than.

84. Compare and Contrast
Metaphors do not use clue words. Words such as unlike, but, and however can show contrasts.
Ask questions while reading to compare and contrast, such as “How are these two characters alike and different?” or “What does this situation remind me of?”

85. Flashback
A flashback is an interruption in the narrative order to show an event that happened earlier.
An author can use a flashback to give background on a character and event or to show how a past event influenced a character.

86. Flashback
Movies and television use flashbacks effectively, often with visual clues to let the view know a flashback has occurred.
Novels and many other stories use flashbacks, often with little introduction. The reader must often look for clues such as verb tense and setting details.

87. Context Clues
An unfamiliar word’s context, the words and phrases around the word, can help determine the word’s meaning.
List unfamiliar words from “Good-bye to the Moon” in a chart. List any context clues that help determine the meaning of the word. Check your definitions in a dictionary.
