Learning can happen anywhere! In this episode of Charlie & Company, the “school zone” in the spotlight is a theater. After all, it is the perfect place for great characters and using your imagination. Charlie and Miss Ellie, your “Anywhere Teacher,” visit a rehearsal for a non-pork-consuming production of The Three Little Pigs (complete with a vegetarian Wolf)! They will solve the “puzzle it out” question of the day. Preparing for an upcoming show is the perfect place to practice sequencing: What happens first, second, and third? Getting ready for a play is hard work, and so is getting ready to read. Sequencing is just one of the skills needed, and Autumn, Jaz, and Nestor make it fun. They also practice action words (verbs), choosing the right word (dances? rolls? walks?) to fit the story, with the big, not-so-bad Wolf acting out these movements.  Miss Ellie and friends also present a take-away lesson in subtraction. After the puzzle comes together, and the curtain falls, everyone has learned really important early math and reading readiness skills.
