Week 40. Author: Maricris Gregorio Chris is worried about entering Grade 1 in the coming school year. His family helps ease his worry by testing his readiness for some skills expected in Grade 1. His father asks if he can already tell his name, its first letter and his age. His mother asks if he can identify the names of the rest of the family. His brother asks if he can identify shapes and colors. His sister asks if he can cut along a line. Chris shows that he can do all those things. He then excuses himself to go to the bathroom and insists that he can go alone. His family applauds him and tells him that he is, indeed, ready for Grade 1.
