What children learn in Level 47

A, an, and the come before nouns. Use a before a consonant sound: a dog, a kite.
Use an before a vowel sound: an apple, an owl, an egg.
Pointing words tell which one. This and these are close to you. That and those are far away.
This and that are for one thing. These and those are for more than one: this book, these books.
Your turn! Tap every a, an, and the.
