[cheerful upbeat music] ♪ HI, SUPER LEARNERS, AND WELCOME TO MY CLASSROOM.

I'M YOUR HOST, MR. R., AND I AM SO EXCITED TO HANG WITH YOU TODAY.

WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A REALLY FUN TIME TOGETHER, AND WE'RE GOING TO LEARN AT THE SAME TIME.

YOU READY?

HI, EVERYONE, IT'S MS. SHAKEMIA HERE, AND I'M SO READY TO DO MORE LEARNING WITH YOU TODAY.

TODAY, WE WILL BE READING "THE WIND AND THE SUN."

OUR READING GOAL WILL BE TO DESCRIBE THE TEXT CHARACTERS AND EXPLAIN HOW THEIR ACTIONS CONTRIBUTE TO THE EVENTS THAT TAKE PLACE IN THE STORY.

DID YOU KNOW THAT CHARACTERS IN STORIES HAVE THE SAME QUALITIES OR CHARACTERISTICS THAT WE DO?

WELL, THEY CAN.

LET'S COME UP WITH A CLEAR DEFINITION OF CHARACTER TRAITS TO GUIDE US TODAY.

WHEN WE ARE THINKING ABOUT A CHARACTER'S TRAITS, WE WANT TO FOCUS ON WHO THEY ARE ON THE INSIDE INSTEAD OF WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE ON THE OUTSIDE.

FOR EXAMPLE, TAKE A LOOK AT THIS CHARACTER.

HER NAME IS AMY.

IF I DESCRIBE HER BY SAYING THAT SHE IS PRETTY, SHORT, AND HAS BROWN HAIR, WOULD THOSE BE OUTSIDE TRAITS OR INSIDE TRAITS?

EXACTLY.

I WAS DESCRIBING WHAT SHE LOOKS LIKE ON THE OUTSIDE.

NOW, WHAT IF I SAY THAT SHE'S BRAVE, SMART, AND KIND?

ARE THOSE TRAITS DESCRIBING WHAT SHE'S LIKE ON THE INSIDE, OR THE OUTSIDE?

GREAT.

I WAS DESCRIBING WHO SHE IS ON THE INSIDE.

CHARACTER TRAITS CAN BE CONSIDERED POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE.

POSITIVE TRAITS ARE THOSE WE CONSIDER TO BE GOOD, LIKE "HELPFUL" OR "BRAVE."

NEGATIVE TRAITS ARE THOSE WE CONSIDER TO BE NOT SO GOOD, LIKE "GRUMPY" OR "MEAN."

I HAVE A FEW CHARACTER TRAITS THAT I WANT YOU TO HELP ME SORT.

I'M GOING TO SHOW YOU A CHARACTER TRAIT, AND I WANT YOU TO TELL ME IF YOU THINK IT IS POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE.

IF THE CHARACTER TRAIT THAT I SHOW YOU IS POSITIVE, I WANT YOU TO GIVE ME A THUMBS-UP.

IF YOU THINK THE TRAIT IS NEGATIVE, GIVE ME A THUMBS-DOWN.

ARE YOU READY?

LET'S BEGIN.

OUR FIRST CHARACTER TRAIT IS "CLEVER."

IS "CLEVER" AN INSIDE OR OUTSIDE TRAIT?

RIGHT.

INSIDE.

IF SOMEONE IS CLEVER, THEY ARE INTELLIGENT OR SMART.

SO, DO YOU THINK "CLEVER" IS A POSITIVE OR A NEGATIVE TRAIT?

I SEE LOTS OF THUMBS UP.

THAT'S RIGHT.

IT'S MOSTLY CONSIDERED POSITIVE.

NEXT TRAIT: "RUDE."

WHEN SOMEONE IS RUDE, THEY ARE IMPOLITE OR DISRESPECTFUL.

DO YOU THINK "RUDE" IS A POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE TRAIT?

I SEE LOTS OF THUMBS DOWN.

THAT'S RIGHT.

IT'S MOSTLY CONSIDERED NEGATIVE.

OUR THIRD TRAIT IS "BOASTFUL."

WHEN SOMEONE IS BOASTFUL, THEY ARE BRAGGING OR SWAGGERING.

DO YOU THINK "BOASTFUL" IS A POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE TRAIT?

I SEE LOTS OF THUMBS DOWN, BECAUSE IT'S MOSTLY CONSIDERED NEGATIVE.

OUR FINAL TRAIT IS "KIND."

WHEN SOMEONE IS KIND, THEY ARE GENTLE AND COMPASSIONATE.

DO YOU THINK "KIND" IS POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE?

I SEE MOSTLY THUMBS UP, BECAUSE KINDNESS IS GENERALLY CONSIDERED TO BE A POSITIVE TRAIT.

TO SUMMARIZE, "CLEVER" AND "KIND" ARE POSITIVE TRAITS; "RUDE" AND "BOASTFUL" ARE NEGATIVE TRAITS.

UNDERSTANDING BOTH TYPES OF TRAITS HELPS US TO BETTER UNDERSTAND THE CHARACTER, WHICH ALSO HELPS US UNDERSTAND THEIR ACTIONS, AND EVENTUALLY, HOW THEIR ACTIONS CONTRIBUTE TO THE SEQUENCE OF EVENTS IN A STORY.

WE ARE GOING TO READ THE FABLE TITLED "THE WIND AND THE SUN" TODAY, TO TRY TO IDENTIFY THE CHARACTER TRAITS FOR BOTH THE WIND AND THE SUN.

WATCH ME AS I READ THE FIRST PARAGRAPH TO FIND CLUES THAT HELP ME FIGURE OUT WHO THE WIND IS ON THE INSIDE.

AS I READ THE FIRST PARAGRAPH OF OUR FABLE, I NOTICED THAT IN SENTENCE 2, THE WIND WAS BRAGGING TO THE SUN ABOUT BEING STRONGER.

THE TEXT SAYS... THAT TELLS ME THAT THE WIND IS VERY BOASTFUL, WHICH MEANS WHAT?

EXACTLY.

THAT MEANS HE BRAGS A LOT.

YOU REMEMBER THAT FROM EARLIER IN OUR LESSON.

GREAT JOB.

I'M GOING TO CONTINUE LOOKING BACK INTO THE TEXT TO FIND CLUES ABOUT THE WIND.

LET'S READ PARAGRAPH 2 TOGETHER, LOOKING FOR THE WIND'S CHARACTERISTIC TRAITS.

HMM.

THE WIND SEEMS VERY PUSHY TO ME.

IN THE TEXT, IT SAYS THAT... THAT SEEMS VERY PUSHY, IF YOU ASK ME.

SO, I WOULD SAY THAT THE WIND IS VERY BOASTFUL AND PUSHY.

HMM.

NOW, I NEED TO THINK ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT THE WIND'S CHARACTER TRAITS ARE POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

I THINK YOU'RE RIGHT.

THOSE TRAITS SEEM PRETTY NEGATIVE TO ME.

[ding] DID YOU HEAR THAT?

THAT NOISE MEANS THAT I JUST GOT AN IDEA.

DO YOU MIND IF I SHARE IT WITH YOU?

GREAT.

WELL, I WAS JUST THINKING THAT THE WIND'S CHARACTER TRAITS BEING BOASTFUL AND PUSHY ARE PROBABLY THE REASON WHY HE LOST THE COMPETITION WITH THE SUN.

NOW, IT'S YOUR TURN TO LOOK FOR CLUES.

BUT THIS TIME, YOU'RE GOING TO BE TRYING TO FIGURE OUT THE CHARACTER TRAITS FOR THE SUN.

WE'RE GOING TO REVISIT THE FIRST PARAGRAPH TO LOOK FOR CLUES ABOUT THE SUN'S CHARACTER.

LET'S READ PARAGRAPH 1 TOGETHER.

IN THIS PARAGRAPH, WE SEE THAT... ...AND TOLD THE WIND TO TAKE THE FIRST TURN IN THE STRENGTH COMPETITION.

SO, WHAT DO THOSE CLUES TELL US ABOUT THE SUN'S CHARACTER TRAITS?

RIGHT.

THE SUN IS KIND.

HOW DO WE KNOW THAT?

EXACTLY, BECAUSE IN PARAGRAPH 1, THE SUN IS AGREEABLE AND POLITE WITH THE BOASTFUL WIND, EVEN ALLOWING THE WIND TO GO FIRST IN THE COMPETITION.

AWESOME, SO, WE'RE RIGHT ON TRACK TO DESCRIBING THE SUN'S CHARACTER TRAITS.

NOW, AS I READ PARAGRAPH 3 OF OUR FABLE, I WANT YOU TO CONTINUE PAYING ATTENTION TO CLUES FROM THE TEXT THAT TELL US MORE ABOUT THE SUN'S CHARACTER.

AS I READ, I WANT TO SEE YOUR FIREWORK HANDS, LIKE THIS, ANYTIME YOU HEAR SOMETHING IN THE STORY THAT REVEALS ABOUT THE SUN'S CHARACTER TRAITS.

HERE WE GO.

WOW!

I SAW LOTS OF FIREWORKS AS I WAS READING.

LET'S IDENTIFY THE CLUES IN THE STORY THAT TELL US MORE ABOUT THE SUN'S CHARACTER.

WHAT WORDS OR PHRASES IN SENTENCE 2 OF PARAGRAPH 3 REVEAL MORE ABOUT THE CHARACTER TRAITS OF THE SUN?

I HEARD IT.

IN SENTENCE 2, THE SUN'S SMILE IS DESCRIBED AS WARM, AND ITS RAYS AS BEAMING VERY GENTLY.

SO, WE CAN ADD "WARM" AND "GENTLE" AS CHARACTER TRAITS OF THE SUN, ALONG WITH "KIND."

LET'S LOOK AT ONE MORE SENTENCE FROM PARAGRAPH 3 TO CONFIRM OUR THINKING ABOUT THE SUN'S CHARACTER TRAITS.

IN SENTENCE 6, THE AUTHOR WRITES...

SO, WHAT DOES THIS TELL US ABOUT THE SUN?

EXACTLY.

THE SUN CONTINUES TO BE KIND AND WARM AND GENTLE, EVEN AS THE WIND ACTS LIKE A SORE LOSER.

DO YOU THINK THAT "KIND," "WARM," AND "GENTLE" ARE POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE TRAITS TO HAVE?

I THINK YOU'RE RIGHT.

I WOULD RATHER BE CONSIDERED KIND AND GENTLE THAN PUSHY.

DO YOU THINK THE SUN'S CHARACTER TRAITS PLAYED A ROLE IN THE WAY THE STORY ENDED?

GIVE ME A THUMBS-UP IF YOU THINK THEY DID, OR A THUMBS-DOWN, IF YOU THINK THE SUN'S TRAITS DID NOT PLAY A ROLE IN THE WAY THE STORY ENDED.

I SEE LOTS OF THUMBS UP, AND I THINK YOU'RE RIGHT.

BECAUSE THE SUN WAS SO WARM, THE MAN REMOVED HIS JACKET.

THIS MADE THE SUN THE WINNER OF THE COMPETITION.

EVEN AFTER THE SUN WON THE COMPETITION, IT CONTINUED TO SMILE AND BE POLITE, INSTEAD OF BRAGGING, LIKE I PREDICT THE WIND WOULD HAVE DONE.

SO, NOW, WE SEE THAT... YOU CAN USE THIS STRATEGY WITH ANY STORY, NOT JUST THIS ONE.

DESCRIBING CHARACTERS IN A STORY AND EXPLAINING HOW THEIR ACTIONS CONTRIBUTE TO THE SEQUENCE OF EVENTS IS ESSENTIAL WHEN COMPREHENDING, OR UNDERSTANDING, A STORY.

WE'VE REACHED YET ANOTHER GOAL, SO, YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS.

CELEBRATION TIME.

ON 3, I WANT YOU TO KISS YOUR BRAIN FOR WORKING SO HARD TODAY.

TODAY, WE LEARNED ABOUT THE IMPORTANCE OF UNDERSTANDING CHARACTERS IN A STORY.

WHEN WE BETTER UNDERSTAND THE CHARACTERS, WE ARE BETTER ABLE TO DESCRIBE THEM AND THEN EVENTUALLY EXPLAIN HOW THEIR ACTIONS CONTRIBUTE TO THE SEQUENCE OF EVENTS.

YOU ALL DID AN EXCELLENT JOB TODAY AND HAVE EXTENDED YOUR KNOWLEDGE EVEN MORE.

I CANNOT WAIT TO CONTINUE LEARNING WITH YOU.

UNTIL NEXT TIME.

SEE YOU.

I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THE PERFECT TIME TO SHARE THIS NEXT VIDEO WITH YOU.

CHECK IT OUT.

MY NAME IS LIZZY, AND I AM 18 YEARS OLD, AND MY GIRL POWER IS LEADING BY EXAMPLE THROUGH SPORTS.

[Chloe-Olivia] ♪ BEAUTIFUL, YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL ♪ ♪ CRAZY KINDA BEAUTIFUL ♪ [Lizzy] I USUALLY LOOK AT THE TARGET FIRST, AND I TAKE A DEEP BREATH.

I TAKE OUT MY RELEASE, AND I LOCK IT IN.

I PICK UP MY BOW, AND I PULL BACK, AND I MAKE SURE THAT MY SITE IS WH ERE I REALLY WANT IT TO BE.

AND I RELAX, AND THEN... LET IT GO.

[crowd cheering] SO, I WAS NOT INTERESTED IN SPORTS AT ALL.

I WAS ALWAYS KIND OF SHY.

[crowd going wild] I WAS BORN WITH SPINA BIFIDA, WHICH WAS, BASICALLY, THERE WAS A BUBBLE ON THE BOTTOM OF MY BACK, AND WHEN I WAS BORN, THEY HAD TO CLOSE MY BACK, AND, THROUGH THAT PROCESS, MY LEGS STOPPED MOVING.

AND, SO, THAT'S WHY I'M IN A WHEELCHAIR.

WHEN I WAS 10 YEARS OLD, I WENT TO A DOCTOR APPOINTMENT, AND THIS LADY COMES UP TO ME, AND SHE'S LIKE, "HAVE YOU EVER BEEN INVOLVED IN ADAPTIVE SPORTS?

HAVE YOU EVER PLAYED WHEELCHAIR BASKETBALL?"

AND I WAS LIKE, "NO.

I'M NOT THAT KIND OF PERSON."

AND I DID NOT WANT TO GO, AT ALL.

AND THEN, MY MOM, SHE BASICALLY TOLD ME ONE DAY, SHE'S LIKE, "YOU'RE GOING TO PRACTICE."

SHE SAW SOMETHING THAT I DIDN'T SEE AT THAT TIME, THAT WAS REALLY IMPORTANT THAT I SHOULD TRY TO DO.

I JUST KIND OF WANTED TO BE IN MY OWN LITTLE BUBBLE AND NOT GET OUT OF MY SHELL.

SHE IS A BIG REASON WHERE I AM TODAY.

GOOD SHOT.

[crowd cheering] I PLAY WITH THE CHARLOTTE ROLLIN' HORNETS, AND MY POSITION, TYPICALLY, IS POINT GUARD.

[crowd cheering] [man] LET'S GO, LIZZY!

WHAT I WANT TO DO IS SPREAD AWARENESS OF ADAPTIVE SPORTS.

AFTER THE WHOLE DEMO, WHAT DID YOU LEARN FROM IT?

THAT THIS IS A LOT HARDER THAN IT LOOKS.

[laughs] I HAVE SO MUCH RESPECT FOR YOUR ARMS.

ADAPTIVE SPORTS IS DEFINITELY AS COMPETITIVE AS ABLE-BODIED SPORTS.

UNFORTUNATELY, IT'S NOT AS WELL-TELEVISED, LIKE, PEOPLE JUST DON'T KNOW A LOT ABOUT ADAPTIVE SPORTS.

BUT WE WORK JUST AS HARD, AND WE DO JUST AS MUCH TRAINING AS AN ABLE-BODIED ATHLETE WOULD.

I JUST WENT TO THAILAND TO PROMOTE ADAPTIVE SPORTS.

THEY HAVE A RECREATIONAL, LIKE, THERAPY PROGRAM, AND A LOT OF THE THAI STUDENTS WANT TO BE REC THERAPISTS.

IT WAS ABOUT TEACHING...

IT WAS JUST SUPER EYE-OPENING.

I ACCEPTED TO GO TO UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS, ARLINGTON, TO PURSUE MY ACADEMIC AND ATHLETIC CAREERS.

MY ULTIMATE GOAL IS TO MAKE THE PARALYMPIC WOMEN'S WHEELCHAIR BASKETBALL TEAM FOR TOKYO, JAPAN, IN 2020.

I WOULD SAY TO GIRLS TO HAVE CONFIDENCE IN YOURSELF.

DO WHAT YOU WANT TO DO, AND WORK HARD AT THAT, BECAUSE THERE'S NO ONE THAT CAN BE YOU BETTER THAN YOU.

DID Y'ALL LIKE THAT?

THAT WAS SO COOL.

THANK GOODNESS FOR THIS TIME RIGHT AT HOME.

LOOK, CAN'T STOP NOW.

CHECK OUT WHAT WE GOT NEXT.

HELLO, SUPER LEARNERS.

MY NAME IS MRS. JENNIFER, AND I'M SO EXCITED THAT YOU'RE HERE TO LEARN WITH ME TODAY.

YOU WILL NEED A PIECE OF PAPER, A PENCIL, AND A STUFFED ANIMAL FOR TODAY'S LESSON.

ASK A TRUSTED ADULT TO HELP YOU FIND THESE ITEMS.

WHILE YOU'RE GETTING YOUR SUPPLIES, I'M GOING TO GRAB MINE AS WELL.

I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.

♪ ♪ OKAY, I'M BACK NOW, AND I SEE YOU ARE TOO.

WE HAVE OUR SUPPLIES, SO LET'S GET STARTED.

TODAY, WE ARE GOING TO REREAD "LITTLE PIGLETS."

WE WILL LEARN THE NAMES OF THE ANIMALS WE SEE, WE WILL REVIEW THE PARTS OF A BOOK, REVIEW THE LETTERS "P," "I," AND "G," AND SPELL A WORD WITH THE LETTERS WE HAVE LEARNED.

FIRST, WE WILL BE USING ELKONIN BOXES TO HELP US SPELL A WORD.

YOU CAN MAKE YOUR OWN ELKONIN BOXES, USING A PIECE OF PAPER AND A PENCIL.

FIRST, YOU WILL FOLD YOUR PAPER LONGWISE, LIKE THIS.

THEN, FOLD IN THIRDS, LIKE THIS.

ASK A GROWNUP FOR HELP IF YOU NEED TO.

NOW, YOU HAVE 3 ELKONIN BOXES ON TOP AND 3 ON THE BOTTOM OF YOUR PAPER.

SUPER LEARNERS, WE HAVE LEARNED 3 LETTERS TOGETHER.

CAN YOU TELL YOUR STUFFED FRIEND THESE LETTERS?

DID YOU SAY... THAT'S RIGHT!

WE ARE GOING TO WRITE THOSE LETTERS IN OUR ELKONIN BOXES.

WE WILL WRITE ONE LETTER IN EACH BOX ACROSS THE TOP OF THE PAPER, AND THEN, WE WILL SPELL A WORD IN THE BOTTOM BOXES.

NOW, LET'S WRITE THE LETTER "I" IN OUR FIRST BOX.

WE'RE GOING TO START AT THE TOP, MAKE A STRAIGHT LINE DOWN, THEN, COME BACK TO THE TOP, MAKE A STRAIGHT LINE FROM LEFT TO RIGHT, THEN WE'RE GOING TO GO TO THE BOTTOM AND MAKE A STRAIGHT LINE FROM LEFT TO RIGHT.

GREAT!

NOW, LET'S WRITE THE LETTER "P" IN THE MIDDLE BOX.

WE'RE GOING TO START AT THE TOP, WE'RE GOING TO MAKE A STRAIGHT LINE DOWN, THEN JUMP BACK TO THE TOP, AND WE'RE GOING TO MAKE A CURVED LINE TO THE RIGHT, AND BACK TO THE STRAIGHT LINE.

GREAT JOB.

NOW, LET'S WRITE THE LETTER "G" IN THE LAST BOX.

WE'RE GOING TO START AT THE TOP, WE'RE GOING TO MAKE OUR CURVED LINE DOWN TO THE LEFT, AND THEN WE'RE GOING TO COME BACK UP, AND SLIDE TO THE LEFT.

GREAT!

GREAT JOB WRITING YOUR LETTERS.

NOW, SUPER LEARNERS, I NEED YOUR HELP TO SPELL AND WRITE THE WORD "PIG."

ARE YOU READY?

GREAT!

FIRST, WE NEED TO SAY THE SOUNDS IN THE WORD "PIG."

HOLD UP ONE FINGER FOR EACH SOUND.

SAY THEM TO YOUR FRIEND.

[puh... ih... guh].

LET'S TRY IT AGAIN.

[puh... ih... guh].

[puh... ih... guh].

GREAT!

NOW, LET'S KEEP YOUR 3 FINGERS UP.

WHAT WAS THAT FIRST SOUND?

DID YOU SAY "[puh]"?

THAT'S RIGHT!

TELL YOUR STUFFED FRIEND WHICH LETTER SPELLS THAT SOUND.

DID YOU SAY "P"?

THAT'S RIGHT.

THE LETTER "P" IS THE FIRST LETTER WE NEED TO SPELL "PIG."

LET'S WRITE IT IN OUR FIRST BOX ON THE BOTTOM.

WE'RE GOING TO START AT THE TOP, MAKE A STRAIGHT LINE DOWN, THEN WE'RE GOING TO JUMP BACK TO THE TOP, AND MAKE A CURVED LINE TO THE RIGHT, AND BACK TO THE STRAIGHT LINE.

GREAT.

NOW, [puh... ih... guh].

NOW, WHAT WAS THAT MIDDLE SOUND WE HEARD IN "PIG"?

DID YOU SAY "[ih]"?

YES, WE HEARD "[ih]."

TELL YOUR FRIEND WHICH LETTER SPELLS THAT SOUND.

YES, THE LETTER "I" IS THE SECOND LETTER WE NEED, TO SPELL "PIG."

LET'S WRITE IT IN OUR SECOND BOX ON THE BOTTOM.

REMEMBER, WE START AT THE TOP, MAKE A STRAIGHT LINE DOWN, THEN WE JUMP BACK TO THE TOP, MAKE A STRAIGHT LINE FROM LEFT TO RIGHT, THEN GO TO THE BOTTOM, AND MAKE ANOTHER STRAIGHT LINE FROM LEFT TO RIGHT.

GREAT JOB.

[puh... ih... guh].

NOW, WHAT WAS THE LAST SOUND WE HEARD IN THE WORD "PIG"?

DID YOU SAY "[guh]"?

YES, WE HEARD "[guh]."

TELL YOUR STUFFED FRIEND WHICH LETTER SPELLS THAT SOUND.

DID YOU SAY "G"?

YES, THAT'S THE LETTER THAT SPELLS THE "[guh]" SOUND.

IT IS THE LAST LETTER WE NEED TO SPELL OUR WORD, "PIG."

LET'S WRITE IT ON OUR THIRD BOX, ON THE BOTTOM.

SO, WE'RE GOING TO START AT THE TOP, WE'RE GOING TO MAKE A CURVED LINE DOWN AND TO THE LEFT, THEN COME UP AND MAKE A LINE TO THE RIGHT-- THE LEFT.

GREAT.

WOW, SUPER LEARNERS.

WE TOOK THE LETTERS WE LEARNED, AND MADE THE WORD "PIG."

CAN I SEE YOUR WORD "PIG"?

THAT LOOKS GREAT!

I SEE YOU WROTE YOUR "P," "I," AND "G" FROM LEFT TO RIGHT.

THANKS FOR HELPING.

BEFORE WE START OUR STORY TODAY, I AM GOING TO TALK ABOUT SOME IMPORTANT WORDS FOR YOU TO KNOW.

TELL YOUR STUFFED FRIEND WHAT I AM HOLDING.

DID YOU SAY "A BABY"?

THAT'S RIGHT.

A BABY IS A PERSON WHO WAS JUST BORN.

JUST LIKE PEOPLE, ANIMALS HAVE BABIES TOO, AND THEY HAVE THEIR OWN NAMES.

THESE ARE DUCKLINGS.

SAY "DUCKLINGS" WITH ME.

"DUCKLINGS."

DUCKLINGS ARE BABY DUCKS.

TELL YOUR STUFFED FRIEND WHAT WE CALL BABY DUCKS.

RIGHT.

"DUCKLINGS."

THESE ARE CHICKS.

SAY "CHICKS" WITH ME.

"CHICKS."

CHICKS ARE BABY CHICKENS.

TELL YOUR FRIEND WHAT WE CALL BABY CHICKENS.

RIGHT.

"CHICKS."

THESE ARE LAMBS.

SAY "LAMBS" WITH ME.

"LAMBS."

LAMBS ARE BABY SHEEP.

TELL YOUR FRIEND WHAT WE CALL BABY SHEEP.

RIGHT.

"LAMBS."

THESE ARE KITTENS.

SAY "KITTENS" WITH ME.

"KITTENS."

KITTENS ARE BABY CATS.

TELL YOUR FRIEND WHAT WE CALL BABY CATS.

RIGHT.

"KITTENS."

THESE... ARE PIGLETS.

SAY "PIGLETS" WITH ME.

"PIGLETS."

PIGLETS ARE BABY PIGS.

TELL YOUR STUFFED FRIEND WHAT WE CALL BABY PIGS.

RIGHT, "PIGLETS."

NOW, LET'S GET READY TO REREAD OUR BOOK ABOUT MOTHER PIG AND HER LOST PIGLETS.

WHILE WE READ, WE'RE GOING TO LISTEN FOR THE NAMES OF THE BABY ANIMALS.

HERE IS OUR BOOK.

IT IS TITLED "LITTLE PIGLETS."

A BOOK HAS SEVERAL PARTS.

THIS PART IS CALLED THE "FRONT COVER."

IT HAS THE TITLE, TELLS THE AUTHOR AND ILLUSTRATOR, AND SHOWS US A PICTURE ABOUT WHAT THE STORY IS ABOUT.

THIS IS THE "BACK COVER" OF THE BOOK.

WHEN WE OPEN OUR BOOK, THE VERY FIRST PAGE WE COME TO IS CALLED THE "TITLE PAGE."

IT IS CALLED THE "TITLE PAGE" BECAUSE IT HAS THE TITLE ON IT.

LET'S TURN OUR PAGE AND LOOK FOR BABY ANIMALS WHILE MOTHER PIG LOOKS FOR HER LOST PIGLETS.

...BUT HER LITTLE PIGS ARE NOT THERE.

I'M GLAD THAT MOTHER PIG FOUND HER PIGLETS.

CAN YOU TELL YOUR STUFFED FRIEND ONE OF THE OTHER BABY ANIMALS THAT MOTHER PIG SAW WHILE SHE WAS LOOKING FOR HER PIGLETS?

GREAT THINKING.

I REMEMBER THAT MOTHER PIG SAW KITTENS.

ALRIGHT, SUPER LEARNERS.

THAT'S THE END OF OUR LESSON FOR TODAY.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING WITH ME, AS WE REVIEWED THE LETTERS "P," "I," AND "G" AND LEARNED HOW THOSE LETTERS COME TOGETHER TO MAKE A WORD, "PIG."

I HOPE YOU ENJOYED HEARING THE STORY ABOUT MOTHER PIG AND HER SEARCH FOR HER PIGLETS AGAIN AND LEARNING THE NAMES FOR ADULT AND BABY ANIMALS.

KEEP LOOKING FOR WORDS THAT BEGIN WITH THE LETTERS "P," "I," AND "G." WHEN YOU FIND NEW "P," "I," OR "G" WORDS, ADD THEM TO YOUR CIRCLE MAPS.

I'LL SEE YOU NEXT TIME.

DO YOU EVER FEEL LIKE A SUPERHERO WHEN YOU LEARN SOMETHING NEW?

MAYBE IT'S JUST ME, THEN, BUT I FEEL LIKE I COULD DO ANYTHING WHEN I LEARN NEW THINGS.

IT'S SO GREAT TO BE ABLE TO LEARN WITH YOU TODAY.
