I Know It!
Do you know it?
OK, I will tell you about one of today's key words.

You usually find them inside a table.
You have to pull them out to use them.
Oh! I know it! I know it!
OK, Katie, what's the answer?
You're talking about drawers.
You can put lots of different things in drawers, like papers or tools.
They're nice to have so that you know where you put your things.
Am I right?
Yes. "Drawer" is the right answer.
Drawers are very useful.
Did you have the right answer?
