It is good that you remember important details from the song you
sang.
Writing down some notes is a strategy that we can do to remember
things around us. Here is the definition of Noting Details.

I want to know if you can note details by answering the following
questions:
a. In the song, what did she think of on her way to the
market?

This time, let us learn how to involve our feelings by learning how
to infer.

they think and feel, and by what they do.
Exercise II. A. Good job! You are really working hard in our
activities. Now let us have more fun in learning. Write on the

while walking like a coquette.

of events.

what happens after that, and what happens last?
Good Job! You are on the right track now! You already understood
