The School Play
“Places, places, everyone!” my teacher shouted. “We have to be ready for our first show next week.”
We were practicing for the school play, but it was not going well.
The play was about space. We built a rocket ship to pretend to fly to outer space. Then, we blasted into the sky and passed the moon.
But it was all a disaster. Luna dropped her tools and the steering wheel fell apart in my hands. All the kids were confused.
We need more practice!

Explain It
Now have your child answer a couple questions about the story:
What is going on in this story?
What is the title of the story? (Hint: it's underlined at the top.)
