We just saw all of today's key words in our Read It paragraph.
And now it is time for What's that Word?
What's that Word?
What's that Word?
Yes, we are going to give you a word.
Well, today I'm going to give you the letters of a word.
But they are not in the right place.
You need to put the letters in the right place to find the key word.
OK, here we go.
L-A-H-F.
L-A-H-F. Now Gabe, what's that word?
Um, L-A-H-F.
That is LAHF.
OK, that's funny. I... I laughed.
But you are wrong.
I know what the word is.
The word should be H-A-L-F, half.
Am I right?
You are right. Good job!
Well friends, let's continue learning with Conversation A.
Hi, Lily. What are you looking at?
I'm looking at beautiful pictures of Earth.

I like to hike in them.
Here are some pictures of hills.
I like them too.
They're OK.
I like mountains better.
Ken sees Lily at the beginning of our conversation.
And she is looking at a book.
Now Ken wants to know more about this book, so he says, "What are you looking
at?" What are you looking at?
Now you ask this question when you want to know something more about what a
person is doing or what they are looking at.
What are you looking at?
I'm looking at my Let's Talk in English magazine.
What are you looking at?
I'm looking at pictures of my family.
Well, what is Lily looking at?
She's looking at beautiful pictures of Earth.
She's looking at beautiful pictures of Earth.
Well, Ken is interested, so he says, "Can I see?" If you want to look at
something that another person is looking at, say: Can I see?
Can I see the pictures?
Can I see your family?
Can I see your Let's Talk in English magazines?
Well, Lily is looking at beautiful pictures of mountains with snow on them.
Ken says that he likes to hike in mountains.
I like to hike in them.
I like to hike in mountains.

Well, we like to keep learning, and we like to look for more key words in our
conversations.
So here is Conversation B.
All the land on Earth is so beautiful.
Look at this picture.
That is a big plain.
Yes.
More than half of the land on Earth is plains.
Did you know that?
No, I didn't.
Plains are beautiful.
Look at the flowers!
Plains are really flat.
So? I like them.
I still like mountains better.
Well, Lily says all the land on Earth is so beautiful.
So Lily is looking at this book, and it has many pictures, many beautiful
pictures.
All the land on Earth is so beautiful.
Well, what is beautiful to you?
What is so beautiful to you?
You can say: This mountain is so beautiful.
Or, that hill is so beautiful.
The snow is so beautiful.
Or, is there a beautiful girl in your life?
You can say: She's so beautiful.
She's so beautiful.
All right. Well uh, I was talking about Lily.
Lily was saying things about Earth: The land is so beautiful.
Later she says, "Look at the flowers!" Look at the flowers.
Or, look at this.
Look at the sunset.
It's so beautiful.
Look at the stars.
They are so beautiful.
What is so beautiful?
Tell someone to look at those things.
Well, at the end of our conversation, Ken says, "I still like mountains better."
So Lily likes plains; Ken likes mountains.
They are discussing or maybe even arguing which is better.
He says, "I still like this better." Maybe you're discussing which is better:
chocolate or strawberry?
Chocolate or strawberry?
Well, I still like chocolate better.
Strawberry is OK, though.
So you can use this sentence pattern to discuss different things.
