The Missing Fishing Net
Phase 5 · Book 3Focus past-tense -ed

Anna and Max played by the lake with Mum. They used a small net to look at water plants. Then they packed their bag.

“Where is the net?” asked Anna. Max checked the bag. It was not there. They had to find it before going home.

They looked by the bench. Max lifted the bag. Anna searched beside it. No net!

“Where did we stop?” asked Mum. Anna pointed to a flat rock. They walked back along the path. Max spotted the net beside the rock.

Anna picked up the net. Mum helped them check their things. Max zipped the bag. They smiled and waved to the ducks.
