0:02:46 > 0:02:50and flick. There - the letter A.

0:02:59 > 0:03:03let's make our squiggles come alive!
0:03:12 > 0:03:14Hello, A.
0:03:14 > 0:03:18Shall we squiggle some things that start with the letter A?
0:03:18 > 0:03:21An ant,
0:03:21 > 0:03:23an apple
0:03:23 > 0:03:26and an ambulance.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29They all begin with the letter A.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33See if you can spot them in our story.
0:03:38 > 0:03:42- Once, there was an ant... - Hello!
0:03:42 > 0:03:46..who was bold and strong. He was always showing off.
0:03:46 > 0:03:51Whilst the other ants worked together to carry a leaf,
0:03:51 > 0:03:55he would pick up a whole leaf and carry it over his head.
0:03:55 > 0:03:58He-hee! Look at me!
0:03:58 > 0:04:03And whilst three ants sensibly carried a twig together,
0:04:03 > 0:04:06he would carry a whole twig on his own.
0:04:06 > 0:04:08Ha-ha! Look at me!
0:04:08 > 0:04:13One day, the other ants found an apple on the ground.
0:04:14 > 0:04:15It looked delicious,
0:04:15 > 0:04:19so they decided to take it to their anthill for dinner.
0:04:19 > 0:04:24But try as they might, none of them could move it.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28Leave this to me.
0:04:28 > 0:04:33He took a deep breath and started to lift the enormous apple
0:04:33 > 0:04:35all on his own!
0:04:35 > 0:04:37THEY GASP
0:04:37 > 0:04:39The other ants gasped
0:04:39 > 0:04:43as he heaved the apple high over his head.
0:04:43 > 0:04:47HE LAUGHS Look at me!
0:04:47 > 0:04:50But the apple was too heavy.
0:04:50 > 0:04:54It wibbled and toppled,
0:04:54 > 0:04:58right onto the ant's foot. Ouch!
0:04:58 > 0:05:01Luckily an ambulance arrived...
0:05:03 > 0:05:06and took him to Ant Hospital
0:05:06 > 0:05:09to get his foot checked out.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11As the other ants tried
0:05:11 > 0:05:15to move the apple, the bold ant returned.
0:05:15 > 0:05:17Ha! Nothing broken.
0:05:17 > 0:05:21They've sent me home, so let's get this apple moving!
0:05:21 > 0:05:25But then the bold ant surprised them all.
0:05:25 > 0:05:28Let's do it as a team.
0:05:28 > 0:05:32If we work together, we can move it.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35So the ants all worked together
0:05:35 > 0:05:39to give the apple a BIG push,
0:05:39 > 0:05:44and it rolled all the way to the anthill.
0:05:44 > 0:05:48Hooray! We moved the apple together!
0:05:48 > 0:05:52Now we can eat it together, too!
0:05:52 > 0:05:55And that's just what they did.
0:05:58 > 0:06:02Can you remember how to squiggle the letter A?
0:06:02 > 0:06:05Let's get a clue from the squiggle pad.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11ALL: We're writing the letter A.
0:06:14 > 0:06:17Look at Florence's letter A.
0:06:17 > 0:06:21She goes round, up...
0:06:21 > 0:06:23down and flick.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25Johanna is squiggling.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28Round, up,
0:06:28 > 0:06:30down and flick.
0:06:30 > 0:06:32Perfect!
0:06:32 > 0:06:34Great job, Lily.
0:06:34 > 0:06:37That's an excellent letter A.
0:06:40 > 0:06:44ALL: The letter A.
0:06:44 > 0:06:46Great squiggling!
0:06:46 > 0:06:49It's time to go now, but come back soon
0:06:49 > 0:06:52and keep squiggling letters!
0:06:52 > 0:06:55- ALL:- Bye!
