A tiny picture story about an egg starts out mixed up: the chick, then the egg, then the cracking egg. The cards drop one at a time into three numbered places: first the beginning (an egg in a nest), then the middle (the egg cracks), last the end (a chick pops out), and the video ends on the recap "A story has a beginning, a middle and an end."

Transcript

What the lesson says

Here is a little story about an egg.

Oh no! The pictures are all mixed up.

A story has three parts. One, two, three!

What comes first? Let's find out.

First comes the beginning. An egg sits in a nest.

Then comes the middle. Crack! The egg starts to break.

Last comes the end. Out pops a little chick!

Now the story is in the right order.

Egg, then crack, then chick. Now it makes sense!

First the beginning, then the middle, last the end.

A story has a beginning, a middle and an end.
