What children learn in Level 62
- Some action words are alike, but each one shows a different way to do it. Tiptoe, stomp, and march are all ways to walk!
- Tiptoe means walk very quietly on your toes. Stomp means walk with loud, heavy steps. March means walk in step, like in a parade.
- Whisper, say, and shout are ways to talk, from quietest to loudest.
- Your turn! Put them in order, from slowest to fastest.
- Pick the word that shows exactly how it was done. It makes your writing come alive!
