"Hi, I'm Ann Kennedy on behalf of Expert Village, and we'll be looking at how to teach a child to read using big books and read alouds. Read aloud part four, we're on page twelve. When the snow fell I got my sled and went to the top of the hill. It's snowing. I bet that's because it's winter time. Uh oh, is that the little sister saying, what is she saying? Let's say it together. Me too! The brother looks back as we turn the page. Guess what my little sister said? Can you guess? What do you think his little sister said? Let's turn the page to page fourteen and find out. I went skating on the pond. My little sister said me too. She doesn't know how to skate so I had to hold her up. Me too! How do you feel? Would you do all that for your little sister? Let's turn the page and here's page fifteen. What a gallant brother. He has to hold his little sister up. But look at his little mouse friend, he fell on the snow. Let's turn the page and see what happens to the rest of the story. On page sixteen, there was one last piece of cake. My little sister said me too! That sure looks like a good piece of chocolate cake. Let's turn the page and in our next session we're going to see what happens."
