Waddles and the Scoop Truck

A narrated speech and language lesson for K-2 set at an ice cream truck. Children sort describing words by the sense that notices them (see, taste or touch), listen to a three-part story about Waddles the penguin and answer where, what and how questions, name how a character feels, put the story in order, join ideas with "and" or "but", find the right meaning of "cone", choose a kind thing to say to a sad friend, and finish by listening to a spoken order and tapping only the three toppings asked for. Every direction and every choice can be heard aloud.
