Don't be discouraged if you can't understand everything in today's video! Kids are always hard to understand even for native speakers sometimes. So be encouraged by what you can understand! It is important to listen to as much English as you can.

Here is a few questions.

What time do they go to bed?
What is a "trick"?
What is a "top bunk"?

Is everyone watching Japan’s World Cup game tonight? Go Japan!

See you tomorrow!
