ClassX Video Lessons Grade Grade 1 “Rick Can See” Easy Read-Along Story for Early Readers: Storytime Early Birds
Let’s go on a fun adventure with Ricki! Ricki is a curious and imaginative character who loves to look at the world around her. She sees lots of interesting things that make her think and wonder.
Ricki starts her journey by seeing a bright red sock. This sock is not just any sock; it’s special because it shows us how beautiful everyday things can be. Ricki loves to find beauty in simple things!
As Ricki continues her adventure, she sees some animals. She spots a rat, a cat, and even a deer! Each animal makes Ricki excited and curious. She wonders about what the animals are doing. Is the deer eating seeds? Is the cat feeling okay?
Ricki has a funny moment with the cat. She tells the cat that she is not a “sick cat” and that the cat is not on her. This silly mix-up shows how Ricki likes to talk and play with the world around her.
Ricki’s journey is all about seeing and imagining. She teaches us to notice the little things around us. Her playful and curious nature encourages us to explore and enjoy the world, just like she does. Let’s look at our surroundings with wonder and excitement, just like Ricki!
Color Hunt: Just like Ricki found a bright red sock, let’s go on a color hunt! Look around your home or classroom and find objects of different colors. Can you find something red, blue, yellow, and green? Once you find them, think about what makes each object special. Share your findings with a friend or family member and talk about why you chose those objects.
Animal Adventure: Imagine you are on an adventure like Ricki and you see different animals. Draw a picture of an animal you might see on your journey. What is the animal doing? Is it eating, sleeping, or playing? Share your drawing with the class and tell a story about your animal’s adventure. What would you ask the animal if you could talk to it?
Observation Walk: Take a short walk with a grown-up and pretend you are Ricki. Look around and notice the little things you might usually miss. Do you see any interesting shapes, colors, or animals? When you return, draw or write about one thing you noticed that made you curious or happy. Share your discovery with the class and explain why it caught your attention.
