What children learn in Level 6
- Some books are make-believe stories. Things happen that can't really happen, like a pig who drives a car!
- Some books are true. They tell us facts about real things, like how bees make honey.
- A poem has words that sound fun together. Many poems rhyme: cat, hat, mat!
- Your turn! A book about a dragon who loves to dance. Make-believe, or true? Make-believe! Dragons aren't real.
- Try it with a grown-up! At the library, pick one story, one true book, and one book of poems.
