Remember
that all
stories have
a
beginning,
middle and
end.
As I read the
beginning, I
ask myself,
“What is the
character’s
problem or
goal?” When
I think I know
what the
problem is, I
continue
reading to
find important
events. I
know that the
important
events
usually lead
to the
solution of
the problem.

Listening Comprehension
I am going to read a story about a pen pal who receives
some unusual gifts.
Have you ever received a strange gift?
This story has characters and events that are like people and
events in real life,
so it is realistic fiction.
When I read a realistic fiction story, I look for the setting to
be a place that is or could be real. I expect that the
characters will say and do things that I, or people I know,
might say and do. I know that the problem in the story will
be one a real person might have.
When you listen to a realistic fiction story, your purpose is
to enjoy the story.
