The Wheels On The Tuk Tuk by Kabir Sehgal, Surishtha Sehgal and Jess Golden

Recommended for Ages 3+

Video Summary

We journey through a city in India on a Tuk Tuk: a scooter taxi with many seats. Set to the tune of The Wheels on the Bus, we experience a day in the life of a driver and passengers. They see the city, stop for an unexpected guest, share food, and celebrate Diwali.

Video Instructions

Video #1: For a more in depth understanding of the books, we have provided a video retelling an in-class story. Each pass through the text or illustrations allows students to dive deeper into the story’s meaning, preparing them for more complex narratives down the road.

Video #2 & Worksheet: Parents may print the worksheet corresponding to the story. In the second video, Ms Liann will guide students through completing the worksheet. Younger students will learn the appropriate sizes, shapes, and sounds of letters. Older students will learn the spelling of new words, helpful phonics rules, and how to write in complete sentences.
