Typically when we ask a story, we generally focus on three different verbs and that works great! But every once in a while there might be a need to really laser in on only one verb. This verb might be particularly difficult, particularly important, or one that students often mess up.

Literacy is such an important skill when it comes to language acquisition. Not only do we want our students to be able to speak the language, we also want them to be able to read and understand it.
