An activity to start here
Sam and Lina are siblings. Their parents are Jo and Alex. Jo’s sister Kim has a child called Noa. Jo’s father is Pat. Use this story to describe how each person is related to Sam.
Make it easier or take it further
Keep the story visible and read one sentence at a time. Families can look different. Your child can use book characters or invented people instead of their own family.
See answers and examples
Lina is Sam’s sister; Jo is Sam’s parent; Kim is Sam’s aunt; Noa is Sam’s cousin; Pat is Sam’s grandfather. For the open task, any accurate sentence about the chosen story works.
