Coach Ollie's games
Hoot hoot! This is Coach Ollie the owl. Ollie runs the Listening Games. He gives directions. You listen to every word. Then you do it! Ready?

Good listeners catch the key words. Tap the red circle. Red is the color. Circle is the shape. Tap the green star. Green is the color. Star is the shape.
