Which Way's the Beach?

Rattletrap Car by Phyllis Root (Grade 1 Read Aloud)

Norman: I don't really like swimming but surfing is awesome!
Stella: We aren't really surfing silly, we're just standing on a paddle board.
Norman: Well whatever we're doing, we're better than Miss Elden. She fell off after 5 seconds.
Stella: Ya, she should stick to reading stories and leave the extreme sports to us.

Hi boys and girls! Today we are going to read a story called Rattletrap Car, about a family who really want to go to the beach so they can go swimming at the lake. Their car is a bit old, so they have to find some creative ways to get it to work when it keeps breaking down.  Last summer, Norman and Stella spent a few weeks at the lake in Osoyoos. One day, they decided to take up paddleboarding, and spent the afternoon floating in the lake on the board.  They tried to teach me how to do it, but I kept falling in the water. I'm going to ask them to give me another lesson the next time we go.

Let's read Rattletrap car together, and then if you'd like, you can print and colour a picture of Hedgie and his underwater friends at the beach!
