Recess Fun From: Listening for Basic Concepts Vocabulary: Behind and In Front
Brennan heard the bell ring. “Yay,” he thought. “It’s recess time.” He put on his coat and got in line behind his friend Bernie.
Brennan’s teacher said, “Brennan, please come up here and stand in front of the line. You’ve worked very hard in class today, so I want you to be our leader.” “Thank you,” said Brennan as he walked to the front of the line.
Brennan led his class quietly down the hall. When they got to the door, Brennan stood behind it to hold it open for everyone in his class as they went outside.
Brennan and his classmates had fun at recess. First they played tag so they would stay warm. Brennan raced in front of the slide just in time to tag Bernie. “You’re it!” he exclaimed.
After they played tag, Brennan and some of his classmates played hide-and-seek. Brennan hid behind a big oak tree, but someone found him.
After the hide-and-seek game, Brennan and his friends played follow the leader. Everyone stood in a line, with Brennan in front of everyone else. Everyone in the line had to copy what Brennan did. He sure had fun being the leader.
The last thing Brennan did at recess was to push Bernie on the swing. He had to stand behind Bernie so he could give him a big push.
Just as he finished pushing Bernie, the bell rang again. “Gosh,” said Brennan, “it’s time to go inside already.” He got in front of the line and led his class back to the room.
“Recess is a lot of fun,” thought Brennan. “I wish it would last all day!”
