Read together
Helper: Good morning! The grass is still wet. Where do we start?
Farmer: At the hen house. The chicken and the duck wake up early.
Helper: I hear a goose near the water. Should I chase it back?
Farmer: Softly. The goose is loud, but it knows the path to the stable.
Helper: Is the cow already in the field?
Farmer: Not yet. First we open the hen house, then we check the pig pen.
Helper: The goat is pulling at the fence again.
Farmer: Tie it near the granary after we feed the birds. Butterflies can wait.
Helper: What about the dachshund? He is barking at the bird on the roof.
Farmer: Bring him with us. He likes to walk when we visit the stable.
Helper: Can I collect eggs while you feed the chicken?
Farmer: Yes — carefully. Then we give water to the duck and the goose.
Helper: School starts soon. Will the cow still need hay before I go?
Farmer: I will finish with the cow. You did well this morning on the farm.
Talk about it
Reflection
Which animal did they feed first, and why did the farmer choose that order?
