Introduction
Can you imagine what it would be like to live on the plant Venus?

Margot is a little girl who moved to Venus from Earth just five years before the story takes place, so she is the only one in her class to remember sunshine. Margot really misses sunshine. Margot writes a poem about the sun:

'I think the sun is a flower,
That blooms for just one hour.'

As you prepare to read 'All Summer in a Day,' listen to Ray Bradbury's podcast [Station #1] as he discusses his short story. Take notes as you listen so you can answer the questions in your packet.

At Station #2 you will compare two documents on Venus.

At Station #3 you will read a poem called 'The Price' and then answer questions related to the poem.

You will listen and view a Webisode [Station #4]comparing the Webisode to a quote from 'All Summer in a Day.'

Enjoy your preview of the story.
