How the lesson starts: Understand Read-Alouds and Media

  1. Tree Radio is on!

    Hi friend! This is Luna the owl. Every night, Luna reads stories on Tree Radio. The forest friends listen close. Then Luna asks questions. Let's listen too!

  2. Listen for who and what

    Luna reads. Omar fed the ducks at the pond. The ducks ate the bread. Who fed the ducks? Omar! Who asks for a person. What did the ducks eat? Bread! What asks for a thing.

  3. Let's answer who

    Luna reads. Pam fed the ducks at the pond. The ducks quacked and ate the bread. Who fed the ducks? Who asks for a person. Think back. Pam fed the ducks! Not Tom, not Dad. Listen again if you need to.
