Watch & Listen
Ollie lost something important. Listen once and look for the problem, places, and solution.
On Saturday morning, Ollie packed a blue backpack for a trip to Coral Bay. First, he stopped at the lighthouse to take a photo. Next, he bought a warm roll at the harbor café. Then, he sat near the tide pools and drew a tiny crab. When it was time to go home, his backpack was gone. Ollie felt worried, but he stayed calm and followed his route backward. At the café, the owner shook her head. Near the lighthouse, Ollie saw nothing. Finally, he returned to the tide pools. A young turtle was sitting beside the blue backpack to keep it safe. Ollie thanked the turtle and checked that his notebook, water bottle, and map were still inside.
