Student Instructions
Read this story at least three days in a row. You can read half on the first day, and the rest on the second day. By the third or fourth day, you should be very accurate and sound very fluent (reading smoothly, like talking).
Click on the picture of the first page to begin to read the book.
Read each page to your parent, babysitter, or an older sibling - if you get stuck on a word, try to make the sounds in the word - if you can’t work it out, your helper can tell you the word after you’ve had a try at it.
After you read each page, your helper can ask you the questions at the bottom of each page and talk about those with you.
When you have read the story two or three times, do the activity template (with a recording 
) so I can hear how you sound as you read!
OPTIONAL: follow-up task:
1. Orokonui Sanctuary is near Dunedin. Do you collect anything special? Some people collect things such as Weet-bix cards, stamps, stickers, foreign coins, Pokémon toys etc.
Use 
the Note tool to write about something that you like to collect OR make a 
video in which you show us your special collection and tell us about it.
OR
2. Go outside (stay in safe places only, take an adult if you need to) and see if you can find an interesting stone or pebble somewhere on the ground.
Make a video or take a 
of it and record some comments about your stone.
