Talking Toys: the Chapter Story
A short read for Class 3 before you play. These notes are written for this page and are not copied from the textbook.
🏪 A busy holiday market
It is a holiday, and the local market is full of people. The toy shop opens in the morning. Its shelves hold wooden toys, soft toys, board games, bats and balls, and many more things.
👀 The toys wait
All the toys wait to see who will buy them. When two girls walk past the shop and only look through the window, the toys feel sad.
🎲 The first buyers
Soon a girl, a little boy and their father stop at the door. The girl points to the board games and chooses Snakes and Ladders. Then a woman comes in with her son, and he asks for the Vande Bharat toy train. She buys it for him.
✈ More customers
Two girls come in next. One of them buys marbles and the other buys the toy aeroplane. The toy phone and the aeroplane were both hoping to be chosen.
🎉 Happy children
Last of all, a group of children comes in. They pick a toy elephant, a spinning top and dancing dolls, and they leave the shop cheerfully.
✍ Words to learn
Children learn naming words and describing words, such as pretty doll and red cap. They also learn plurals: add s to most words and add es to words like box and bus. A short poem about a colourful top rounds off the chapter.
