Retelling a Story

Retelling means telling a story again in your own words after you have heard it. You tell what happened at the beginning, in the middle, and at the end. 📚
Example

After hearing a story about a little rabbit: 🐰 Beginning: 'A little rabbit wanted to find food.' 🥕 Middle: 'The rabbit looked in the garden and found carrots.' 😊 End: 'The rabbit was happy and shared with friends.'
Note

Tips for Retelling

Use words like 'first', 'then', and 'at the end' to help you. Think about who was in the story, what happened, and how it ended. You don't need to remember every word — just the main parts! 🌟
