Mark loves his red pants, but all of the other kids laugh at him when he wears them. So he tries other pants - but they still laugh. Could the problem be something other than his questionable fashion choices? There are four targeted vocabulary structures that are used multiple times throughout the story. The targeted structures are:

• he gets dressed
• ugly
• I don't understand
• On sale

This very simple story is told in two different ways. There is a printable text version, and an animated mp4 version. Tell the story as you watch it (pause if you want to stop and discuss or storyask!), or just watch it for comprehension. The video is just over 5 minutes long, with pause time for students to read the text. There is a second version of the video with only the illustrations - no text - so you can watch it and do story retells. With novice low and novice mid learners, you can tell the story as is. For novice high learners, you can add more details or write a parallel story. You could even use this story at higher levels by having students retell the story in the past.

• Links to the videos both with and without the text

• Comprehension question worksheet
