    6. These stories are alike because they are about traditions, family and music. The grandparents are alike because they are both still alive. The traditions shared between each grandparent and grandchild aare alike because they tell secrets to each other and love each other. They are different because in Grandma's records they go to concerts in New York. In Dancing rainbows they listen to music in New Mexico.

    1.-I think Curt respects his grandpa because he's his elder and he is also is grandpa. The parade had lots of dance moves so he needs to show respect and pay attention. Curt wants to imitate his grandpa.

    2.-I think when Andy says, " A Tewa never dances for himself means. He means that he doesn't thank himself he thanks everybody else and what they do to help the world too.

    Grandmas Records and Dancing Rainbows are alike because the stories have many music traditions. They are different because one has dancing and one has singing.
