BEFORE YOU READ
You could look at the front cover of the book and ask your child – What do you think is happening? What kind of animal is this? What can you see in the picture? What will happen in this book? What time do you go to bed? What time do we have breakfast – morning or night? What time do we have dinner – morning or night?
DURING THE STORY
You should listen to the story once all the way through using our Three Read Approach.
On the second read you could pause the video and use the subtitle questions to help your child think more deeply about the story and share their ideas.
On the third read you could mute the audio and ask your child to read the story to you.
AFTER THE STORY
To extend the interest and learning further there are some downloadable resources below that you could explore together. We would love to see what you get up to, so use the SHARE button from the main toolbar to send us a picture, video or comment.

HAVE FUN PLAYING THIS GAME
Some of these resources may be a little tricky as time is often explored when children start Primary 1, however you can still use them for exploring how the clock works, the direction of the hands and general time like morning, afternoon, night – asking questions like “Do we do this in the morning or night?”
