Story Recall & Verbal Comprehension

English & Expressive Literacy

After listening to an engaging story or read-aloud book, your child can tell you what happened, name the main characters, and talk about their favorite part.

In real life

You finish reading The Three Little Pigs. Your child can summarize the plot: "The big bad wolf blew down the houses, but he couldn't blow down the brick one!"
