Well, you saw all of our key words in our Read It paragraph, and now it's time
to play...
What's That Word?
What's That Word?
What's That Word?
Yes, it is time for us... well, actually it's my turn today to give you the
letters of one of our key words.
Now of course the letters are not in the right place.
You need to put them in the right place to know the key word.
Are you ready?
Let's go.
T-H-A-C-C.
T-H-A-C-C.
Gabe, what do you think?
OK. T-H-A-C-C.
It's one of today's key words.
Mmhm.
Uh, let's see.
Score has a "c" in it, but, no, it doesn't have a "t".
No.
Um, do you know the word?
I think I know the word, Andrea.
Is the word CATCH, C-A-T-C-H?
You are right.
The word is CATCH.
Catch the ball.
Well, we will see our key words in today's conversations, so let's begin with
Conversation A.
(Music).
Take me out to the ball game.
Take me out to the... crowd.
Hi, Ken.
Do you like baseball?
I love baseball!
I player it and I watch it.
Can you explain the game to me?
Well, what do you know about baseball?
There are two teams.
One is on the field.
Right.
How many players can that team have on the field?
Eleven?
No, nine.
Ken loves baseball.
He plays it and watches it.
He plays it and watches it.
Now when you play a sport, you are doing that sport.
When you watch a sport, you can watch it on TV, or you can go and watch a sport
live.
So, do you play basketball?
Do you watch basketball on TV?
If someone says, "I love soccer," you can ask, "Do you play soccer?" or "Do you
watch soccer?" What do you like to do?
Well, we see another good question in our conversation.
Carol says, "Can you explain the game to me?" She doesn't understand baseball,
so she says, "Can you explain the game to me?" If you don't understand
something, use this sentence.
Can you explain the question to me?
Can you explain the meaning of this word to me?
Can you explain the story to me?
Well, let's keep learning with Conversation B.
The pitcher throws the ball to a guy on the other team.
The batter.
And if he hits the ball?
He runs!
That's right.
He runs to first base.
But what if someone on the other team catches the ball?
The batter is out.
Right!
How many bases are there?
Four.
If the batter runs to all the bases, his team scores.
Good job, Carol!
Yes. Good job, Carol.
She is learning a lot about baseball, and so are we.
In the middle of this conversation, Ken says the man runs to first base.
So we found out that there are four bases in baseball.
But not all of these bases are called bases.
There's first base.
There is second base and third base.
Do you know what the fourth one is called?
That's called home plate.
It's like you're at home.
It's called home plate.
If you get to all four bases, that's a home run.
You know that word.
A home run.
Well, you can get to home plate.
Well, we have more to learn and, of course, some to review.
Let's do that now.
